2. CenCal Objectives
We strive to provide a comprehensive program that connects
at-risk youth with mentors, strategies and services that will help lead them to success
both academically and personally.
Mentors utilize an evidence based curriculum that places an emphasis on
how to gain personal disciplines, how to identify and redirect unproductive behavior.
Methods in which mentors influence students
By gaining the trust of students and building relationships
By Identifying triggers that warrant inappropriate behavior
By developing strategies for a student refocus plan for classroom success
By utilizing creative exercises in the community that develop interpersonal
communication skills
