About the CRIS Mentorship Program: Our mentorship program provides New Americans support and engagement on a personal level, helping them advance socially, emotionally, and academically as they transition to life in Columbus. Both mentors and mentees benefit from this relationship, creating strong, long lasting bonds through the exchange of personal and cultural experiences. On a broader scale, this program helps create a safer, more welcoming place for New Americans to call home. Consider becoming a mentor here.
