ID 226 Teen UpRise Mentoring Experience

This course will allow 15 Arcadia University students to have a Global Connection Experience within 12 miles of Glenside. AU students will work with Teen UpRise, a non-profit organization that seeks to help low-income adolescents create better futures. These enthusiastic and lively teenagers will entertain and inspire AU students. TU members are eager to find young adult role models and will impact your lives as much as you impact theirs. This course will design and implement a short-term mentoring program for TU’s students. AU students will spend at least 15 hours of direct contact with TU members. This course will meet three hours a week for on-campus discussions and planning and will host five separate three-hour visits with Teen UpRise students at either Arcadia University or Teen UpRise in Roxborough.
