2024 - Mentor Survey

Mentor Survey

Spring 2024
When things don't go their way, 90% of our youth feel they know how to fix it.

With this survey you will help us learn about how the Circle of Friends Mentoring Program helps the youth we serve. It asks about positive things that help youth overcome stress and challenges. It also helps Circle of Friends assess core measures in Developmental Relationships. This survey is voluntary. All the answers will be confidential and we would like your honest opinions.

This is not a test and there are no right or wrong answers. For each statement please pick the response that best fits your mentee.

Thank you!
