Success Stories

The definition of success at New Jersey MENTOR is as personal as our services.  For some, it is a teen’s ability to trust someone new and for others it’s the ability to be a part of neighborhood and family activities for the first time.

At New Jersey MENTOR we are committed to the notion of everyday miracles.  We invite you to meet the extraordinary people we serve and our dedicated Mentors who open their homes to adults and children in need.  Their stories will touch your heart and illustrate the power of individual achievement and relationships built in home- and community-based settings.
