Consider becoming an Eye to Eye Chapter Leader today
If you are a college student with a learning disability (LD) or ADHD, you could be the difference in the life of a younger student who also has an LD/ADHD.
What is Eye to Eye?
Eye to Eye is a national mentoring program that pairs college and high school students with learning disabilities (LD) and/or ADHD with middle school students who also learn differently. Each week, mentors work with their mentees on art projects and activities designed to help the younger students embrace their learning differences and develop key social-emotional skills that promote academic and personal success.
Chapter Leader Responsibilities
Chapter Leaders are student volunteers that are trained and coached by Eye to Eye staff to lead the mentoring program at their school. All Chapter Leaders are responsible for:
- Attending the Virtual Young Leaders Organizing Institute (August 10th-12th 2021)
- Training for all Chapter Leaders (joined by around 150 other students from across the country)
- Recruiting fellow students to serve as mentors for local middle school mentees
- Participating in weekly coaching meetings with your Eye to Eye Program Coordinator to prepare for and plan each week’s mentoring session
- Coordinating all aspects of the weekly mentoring session/art room (i.e. communicating with mentors/mentees, facilitating the project and conversations in person or virtually, maintaining behavior management, etc.)
- Organizing various activities and initiatives to spread awareness and build a community for students who learn differently on campus and in the community.
