partners young Eritrean adults and professionals with Eritrean youth.
The Eritrean Big Brother Big Sister program links young Eritreans in
high school with collegiate and professional Eritreans in the Dallas
area. The program consists of mentors leading monthly workshops in a
classroom setting, but also has an individual aspect assigning
mentors to students to take an invested interest in mentoring them
one-on-one. Another aim of the BBBS program is to expose the students
to new and diverse experiences through volunteer work in the Dallas
community. Through volunteering, the students gain leadership skills
and a sense of responsibility that will further prepare them for
their future professions.
