Governance 

At Mentors for Youth, we are making a conscientious effort to promote transparency. Here you will find agency information ensuring the integrity of our business and program practices. We have listed our Form 990, Certificate of Incorporation, and IRS Letter of Determination designating our agency as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. We have also listed the November 2022 revised Financial Management practices of our organization. A highlighted list of our program policies and procedures was also included.
