A Place to Belong. An Opportunity to Grow.

We build character, inspire confidence and prepare the next generation.


Who are we?

 

Brotherhood & Sisterhood Mentoring–Chicago, established in 2018, is a faith‑based, trauma‑informed mentoring program dedicated to the social, emotional, and spiritual growth of urban young men in 7th–12th grade. We provide consistent guidance, structured support, and a community of mentors who model character, accountability, and purpose.

Our Programs

Mentorship Program

The Brotherhood and Sisterhood Mentoring Program builds strong, consistent relationships with youth while introducing them to the 8 Core Marks of Manhood and
Womanhood. Through weekly sessions, mentoring connections, and values-based guidance, students grow in character, responsibility, emotional maturity, and leadership.

College & Trade Scholarship Program

This program prepares young people for life after high school by teaching the fundamentals of college preparation, trade pathways, financial aid, career exploration, and academic planning. Youth receive hands-on support to understand their options and build confidence in choosing the right path.

Career & Community Work Program

The Career & Community Connection Program equips youth with real-life skills and workforce readiness. We partner with community organizations and local businesses to provide summer jobs, internships, service opportunities, and career exposure. Students learn professionalism, communication, teamwork, and responsibility through real-world experience.

“I am living proof of the transformative power of mentorship. My life was changed by individuals who genuinely cared about my well-being and future.”
