What it Means to be a Friend

Friends of the Children-Boston creates generational change by engaging children from high-risk communities in 12.5 years of transformative mentoring relationships. We call our professional mentors "Friends" because it isn't just a job. They are forming meaningful relationships with our youth that last for years.  Friends-Boston is the only nonprofit in Massachusetts providing youth in greatest need with 12.5 years of comprehensive mentoring and family support services - kindergarten through graduation, no matter what! Our Achievers are selected because they face significant risk factors in their homes and communities.
