Lorain County Community Action Agency

Mentoring Program Includes Physical Exercise

A new LCCAA partnership brings support to Lorain County boys and girls.

The Youth Mentoring Series began in November at the Elyria Youth Sports Club with Men of Courage. Men of Courage provides mentoring for youth ages 9 to 12, most of whom are participants in the club’s sports.

Mentoring topics include goal setting, anger management, conflict resolution, dealing with peer pressure and more.

“These are a few of the hot button challenges that our youth are confronted with in our society today,” said Men of Courage CEO Anthony Jones. “Many of them don’t have the support system at home to effectively deal with these challenges.”

The current program concludes in March and Jones hopes to repeat it. For more information, visit www.menofcourage-ihn.org or www.elyriayouthsportsclub.com.
