Become a Mentor through Mentor +
Published July 25, 2008
Mentor + is an independent organization, composed of volunteers in recovery, who provide trusted advice to inmates during their last few months before release from prison. Mentors help their mentorees make healthy decisions to prevent them from returning to prison.
Once a week, two mentors will meet with a mentoree to privately discuss his or her situation and receive support and advise from the mentors. Mentors help their mentorees deal with many of the problems inmates face when they leave prison:
- Where to live.
- How to get a job.
- How to stay sober and clean.
- Child support and family issues.
- Personal health and wellness.
- Continuing education.

How to Get Help
To qualify for Mentor +, mentorees must be enrolled in the Drug and Alcohol program at Bucks County Correctional Facility or Bucks County Community Corrections Center.
