Making Mentoring Meaningful (MMM), also known as Mentoring Children of Prisoners, is a mentoring program that provides youth ages 4-17 years old, who have an incarcerated parent, the opportunity to be matched one-on-one with a volunteer mentor for academic and recreational support.

Commitment: Two (2) outings/month for at least one year.  You plan activities around your schedule. 

Activity ideas include: going to the park, zoo, making friendship bracelets together, playing sports, learning a new magic trick, sledding, ice skating, going to a museum, doing your homework together, practicing to become the next American Idol together, or anything that you both are interested in doing. 

Interested? Complete the MMM Volunteer Application and send this to Christy at: Fax: 773-268-9460 (attn: Christy) or by Email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
