FACTS & STATS
OUR MENTORS
WORK HARD!
As A.M.O.B. Mentors, we are dedicated to fostering the development of core bonding groups among students. Through these groups, students learn valuable skills such as teamwork, effective communication, and mutual support. Our program provides a platform for students to not only learn from one another, but also to explore their individual talents and confront their fears in a safe and nurturing environment. We understand that students may face emotional and life changes during their academic journey, and our mentors are committed to guiding them through these challenges.
We help students adapt to and learn from these changes, equipping them with the resilience and coping skills necessary for personal growth. In addition to our personalized monthly check-ins with each student, our program includes group therapy sessions led by licensed therapists. These sessions provide students with a space to explore their emotions, express themselves, and receive professional guidance in a supportive setting. Furthermore, our students actively participate in various school and community activities, fostering a sense of belonging and connection outside the classroom. We invite you to take a moment to review the comprehensive outline of our yearly program, which encompasses a wide range of supportive and enriching activities aimed at empowering our students.
HIGH UNMET DEMAND FOR AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS
There are 24.7 million children who are not in an afterschool program, but would be enrolled if a program were available to them, according to parents. This projection is greater than the number of children who would have been enrolled in an afterschool program in early 2020—prior to the school closures and stay-at-home orders that were instituted in response to the pandemic, as found in America After 3PM 2020 results (24.5 million children), with the percentage of unmet demand among children essentially the same (49 percent vs. 50 percent).
† Unmet demand for afterschool programs remains significantly higher than in surveys conducted in 2014 (41 percent), 2009 (38 percent), and 2004 (30 percent).
