Consider being a mentor to a young parent. 
Christian Counseling Service is seeking church families who are willing to mentor young, high-risk parents (ages 14-25).
This program seeks to help young parents to succeed and to create a stable environment for their children.  
Mentor parents will participate in a one-day training program and will meet with their mentee family one hour a week for six months. 
A stipend will be provided to cover costs of activities such as dinners out and special events. 
Mentor parents will have the support of clinical staff from CCS, who will also organize the first several mentor-mentee group activities.
