Personal Coaching

Upon entry into the JFS program, a single mother (Learning Partner) is matched and paired with a community volunteer, a Coach (Mentor), to form a partnership. Building and strengthening such a relationship is key to begin the work of goal setting.

Expectations during this phase:

  • One-on-one partnership between volunteer coach (mentor) and single mother (learning partner)
  • Establish short-term goals
  • Relationship building
  • Movement toward clarification of self-identity
  • Minimum eight-week commitment
