Men's Mentoring (MEND)

Mentoring Works.

Mercy Connections is pleased to be part of Mentoring for a New Day (MEND), a new program to assist men re-entering the community after incarceration. The program is a collaboration between  Mercy Connections, Howard Center, the Burlington Housing Authority, Vermont Department of Corrections, Burlington Community Justice Center and Turning Point Recovery Center.

Statistics show that individuals who are paired with a volunteer mentor have a much higher likelihood of experiencing success.
