Reaching Back to Our Youth is a non-profit mentoring program focused on the most at risk youth. It was founded in 2009 by Victor Malin Jr. who was himself an at risk youth. With the influence of mentors he was able to turn his life around, graduate from college and form the organization. What makes our mentoring programs unique is that our goal is to match youth with mentors who have personally gone through and overcome the challenges that the youth is currently facing. Our goal is to create matches based on several specific compatibility factors that will allow a tighter bond between the youth and their mentor. It is our belief that having been through and overcome a difficult situation in your past puts you in an advantageous position to help guide someone going through that same situation in their present. It is with this ideology that embodies the concept of, “Reaching Back”.
