JA – I’m still trying to find out about mentoring for you. I called my friend again and she said that she knows a girl (or knows of a girl) who got mentoring through Regesh. I tried to call Regesh myself tonight to find out if they do mentoring for girls, but I just got a machine and I can’t really leave a message since I’m in EY. I will try to call again tomorrow earlier in the day so hopefully I will get a person whom I can ask.
She also gave me another contact to call who might know something.
I just wanted to let you know that I am working on it, and will b”n try to keep you updated.
One interesting piece of info I found out tonight was that apparently BY has every 10th grader speak to a social worker. I don’t know what school you are in, and I know you are in 11th grade, not 10th, but does your school do that for any of the grades? Does your school have a social worker? Have you tried speaking to her? Maybe she knows where you can find a mentor.
