Marching to a Brand New Beat

Since its inception in 1993, Each One Save One (EOSO) has been a leader in mentoring in the New Orleans area. For almost twenty-five years they have been recruiting, screening, training, and matching thousands of children with caring adults who guide and encourage them to reach their fullest potential.  EOSO has also provided mentor enrichment sessions, training and technical support to other organizations and churches. This has added much needed capacity to serve children safely and allows organization to implement mentoring programs according to best practices.

 

In addition to school-based mentoring, the future involves innovation in mentoring assisted by cutting-edge digital technologies that will sustain long-term mentoring relationships on a broader scale.
