The Alberta Mentoring Partnership (AMP) consists of community mentoring agencies, government and youth working together to raise the profile of mentoring in Alberta.

To achieve this goal, AMP partners are collaborating to establish and enhance mentoring programs in local communities. We're helping build capacity by providing access to best practices and sound research supported by tools and resources that will help mentoring agencies start new programs or make existing programs even better.

Ultimately, AMP exists to help community mentoring programs meet the needs of the children and youth they serve.

To connect the children and youth of Alberta with a life-changing mentor, AMP has outlined the following objectives:

Discuss emergent trends, challenges, successes, innovative practices and collaborative opportunities for mentoring youth.
Expand the knowledge base about mentoring and the importance of supporting mentoring.
Serve as a voice for the mentoring community and increase awareness of mentoring in Alberta.
Share information, research and increase accessibility to mentoring organizations.
Develop and implement a strategic plan to enhance mentoring within the province.
