Background and Orientation to Mentoring
Are you from Phoenix originally? If not where?
Tell me about your relationship with your family today
Why do you want to be a mentor to foster youth?
What is your experience working with kids, either volunteer or paid.
What qualities/traits do you enjoy most about children?
What qualities/traits about children might be a challenge for you?
Think about a person, other than your parents, that provided you with guidance or support growing up. Who was that person and what were they like?
If you wanted someone to know a bit about you in just one sentence, what would you want them to know?
What are you hoping to get out of the experience of working with a child in foster care?
What do you feel might be challenging for you at first when trying to form a relationship with your youth?
What would you do, if after seeing them a few times, they were still quiet and reserved around you?
How would you respond to a child that asks you to “promise not to tell” something?
Personal Life
