Yolanda

Hi , everybody
my name is Yolanda and I am a Youth Mentor at the Glendale Homes
community. I work with YouthCARE in the Young Women's Mentoring
Program. I am 16 yrs old. I attend Urban League Academy High School.
The Young Women's Mentoring Program has helped me learn to get along
with girls from other races who are just as strong and powerful
as anybody else. The YWMP has had a big impact on my life. It has
helped me meet, learn and care for many people. I have come to know
that I have younger girls looking up to me. The most fun thing about
being a Youth Mentor is that I can relate to the younger girls and
give them feedback and advice. My plans after High School are to
become Americas Next Top Model. I want to thank everybody for being
there for me and giving me advice. Until next time America! |

in the Young Women's Mentoring Program. This year I hope to meet
lots of young girls and help them enjoy our year together. |
Anquinetta |
I attend Highland Park Sr. High
School and work at our McDonough Homes site. The most important
thing I learned about being a Youth Mentor is gaining a relationship
with the girls so they can learn from you and you can learn from
them. Also, listening to them and understanding where they come
from. After high school, I plan to go to college for business
management and fashion design.
