Winning Futures is an innovative, motivational, strategic planning, and mentoring program that began in 1994. The program impacts youth in middle school and high school.

The enormous success of this award-winning program is its unique teaching style, innovative curriculum, and mentors! Winning Futures is a mentoring model that can be replicated in schools and organizations across the country. It starts with a structured mentoring curriculum where youth create personal five-year plans (middle school students develop their self-esteem and goals). Each student is equipped with a workbook that was written and published by Winning Futures. This curriculum is implemented into a structured mentoring class. Mentors and program staff are trained and supplied with a curriculum manual that has scripted facilitations, hands-on activities, and samples.

Mentors meet with students for one-hour sessions over the school year. Students find their mentoring experience invaluable. It provides them an opportunity to learn about other professions, along with meeting someone outside the classroom who can provide guidance, share personal and professional experiences, and serve as a role model. You can ultimately help determine the future by being a mentor!
