Pen Pals Program Description

Due to COVID-19, CCMP has developed a new form of service delivery, Clarke County Mentor Program Pen Pals, to keep our existing mentors and mentees engaged with one another, as well as to foster new mentor-mentee relationships. As pen pals, the mentor and mentee will exchange letters, helping to build the student’s writing and literacy skills, while also having some fun using age-appropriate writing prompts that will be provided.

Mentees who participate in this program will be matched with a mentor from our organization who has undergone screening and training. Mentors and mentees will be provided with age-appropriate writing prompts and all necessary supplies to write letters to each other, including envelopes, stamps, pens, pencils, pencil sharpeners, stickers, and paper.

Pen Pals Program FAQ

​How long will the pen pals program run?
The Pen Pals Program will begin in late Fall and is expected to run for at least 8 – 12 weeks (hopefully longer).
Will addresses be shared between mentors and mentees?
No. Mentee addresses will not be shared with Mentors and vice-versa. The Clarke County Mentor Program will act as a central distributor, receiving and forwarding all mail.
​How often should we mail letters?
The goal for our mentors and mentees is that they will send each other a letter once per a week, helping to replace the time that they would generally spend together inside of the schools.
