Youth Engagement Opportunity- The Vine Connection Collective

The Vine Connection Collective Mentorship Program is a space for young people ages 14–21 to connect, grow, and prepare for what’s next.

Through mentorship, group conversations, workshops, community events, and hands-on experiences, mentees have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships, develop confidence, explore their goals, and gain skills they can use in school, work, and everyday life.

Throughout the program, mentees will participate in:

• Mentorship and group discussions
• Leadership and personal development activities
• College and career preparation
• Professional development and life skills
• Community service and outreach
• Special events, field days, and workshops
• Sessions shaped around the interests and needs of our mentees

We want mentoring to be more than just showing up for a session. It should be a place where young people feel comfortable being themselves, asking questions, trying new things, and having people in their corner.

Our program is co-ed and designed to meet young people where they are. Whether you’re preparing for college, figuring out your career goals, building confidence, or simply looking for a positive community, there’s a place for you here.

Come connect with us, build relationships, discover new opportunities, and grow with the Vine Connection Collective.

Ages: 14–21
Program: Co-ed
Sessions: Every other Saturday, 2:00–4:00 PM
Location: Chicago, IL
