Girls ages 6-17 Encouraged to Apply for Life-Changing Mentoring Program
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon, a program of J Bar J Youth Services, is excited to announce open enrollment for Little Sisters — girls ages 6 to 17 — living in Bend who could benefit from the positive influence of a mentor. Big Brothers Big Sisters provides one-to-one mentoring relationships that inspire and empower youth to reach their full potential.
“Our goal is to create meaningful, lasting connections between youth and caring adult role models,” said Program Director, Jenn Davis. “Right now, we’re focused on enrolling more Little Sisters and matching them with amazing Big Sisters who are ready to be there for them.”
Through Big Brothers Big Sisters programs, Littles are paired with a trusted mentor who offers support, consistency, and friendship. Mentors and mentees meet regularly to build a connection through shared interests and activities like crafts, hiking, visiting local events, or simply hanging out and talking. Research shows that mentored youth are more likely to succeed in school, avoid risky behaviors, and have stronger relationships. Families are invited to enroll their daughters in this free program to help foster confidence, resilience, and positive growth.

Big Brothers Big Sisters welcomes applications from parents, guardians, caregivers, teachers and community supports who believe a child would benefit from a mentor. Spots are limited, and early enrollment is encouraged.
