Thank you for your interest in the 1:1 Mentoring. It is a privilege to work with youth in the Rogue Valley, and we deeply believe in their resilience and strength.  

At this time, we are temporarily pausing new Mentee Applications until November 2026.

This pause is due to a planned staff Maternity Leave within our small program team. Because we are committed to providing thoughtful, timely support to every youth and family we serve, we want to avoid accepting new applications during a period when we are not able to complete intakes or make new 1:1 Matches. Our goal is to ensure that when you apply, we are fully available to support you through the process. 

When will Applications Reopen?
We plan to begin accepting new mentee applications again on November 10, 2026. We warmly invite you to return at that time to apply for a 1:1 Match.

Looking for Support in the Meantime?
We know that needs don’t pause, and support matters. While applications are temporarily closed, we encourage you to:

• Connect with your school counselor or a trusted adult for support

• Connect with other youth-serving organizations in Jackson County

  • Talent Maker City

  • Youth 715 Ministries

  • Boys and Girls Club

  • Jackson County Library Services

  • YMCA 

  • Medford Drop

  • Scouting America

• Reach out to local organizations that may be able to offer mental health services sooner

  • Jackson County Mental Health (Youth & Crisis Services)

  • La Clinica

  • Options for Southern Oregon

  • Kairos

  • Family Solutions

  • Charlie Health

We remain committed to this community and to the well-being of the youth and families who live here. Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and for the care you show in seeking support and connection.

We look forward to connecting with you when applications reopen. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@rvmentoring.org

With appreciation,
The 1:1 Match Program Team
