OTHER JBBBSLA PROGRAMS

The mission of Jewish Big Brothers Big Sisters of Los Angeles (JBBBSLA) is to assist youth in achieving their full potential through innovative, impactful programs.

Mentorship

JBBBSLA offers one-to-one mentors for Jewish youth ages 6-17 who could benefit from an additional positive adult role model.

Being a mentor is a rewarding, meaningful volunteer experience unlike any other. In just a few hours a month, mentors can have a transformative effect on a child’s life.

Having a mentor can have many benefits for a child, including increased school engagement and self-esteem, stronger social skills, greater concern for others, and less risky behavior.
