Each semester JMU students enrolled in the Youth Empowerment Strategies course become mentors to WHS students who participate in P&G. This years group is 25 members strong and agree to spend about 35 hours over the term with their WHS mentee. Time is spent talking about the mentee's dreams and hopes, life after high school, setting academic goals for the term, and attending enrichment activities with them. JMU students participate in about 25 hours of training before they are matched with a WHS student.
