Cristo Rey Opportunities
 
YouthFriends is a school-based mentoring effort that links caring adult volunteers from the community with students in schools and is open to all students, grades K-12, within participating school districts. All activities take place on school grounds before, during or after school hours. YouthFriends volunteers typically visit a school for one hour each week to do things like have lunch with a student, help with reading or academic tutoring, share an interest or a hobby or simply listen.

Mentor
Help a student (or students) develop the skills and confidence necessary to succeed in school.

Special Projects
YouthFriends actively encourages the development of any new programs that link positive adult role models from the community to students in our schools.
