Mentoring through Sports and Academics!

The positive support of caring and dedicated mentors can be critical to a child’s development, self-esteem, view of self, and view of the world. At Victory United, Inc, we believe that the interaction with mentors and support that they provide can give our youth a significant boost that will propel them through life both inside and outside of the classroom.

At Victory United Inc, we provide these dedicated mentors who work to help address the holistic needs of the child. Currently, we are working with our school partners to provide support mentoring services that will work with each child to develop action plans to improve academically and morally. Our mentoring programs are also used as a bridge to help engage families. Through engaging parents, students, and school community, we can provide more targeted approach and have a larger impact in the lives of the youth we support.

Through our sports programs, we provide coaches who are also focused on their roles as mentors. Our Coaches/mentors work with their youth to develop healthy habits in physical wellness, by remaining actively engaged. Youth are also encouraged to continuously improve academically, emotionally, and morally. Guest Mentor speakers also meet with students weekly to strengthen the support. These mentors focus on making appropriate decisions, wellness, and violence prevention as well as creating a college-going mindset. Our programs work to improve overall confidence, problem solving, social-emotional standing, self-esteem, problem solving and group dynamics as well as the self care, and the art of always seeking to improve oneself.

Victory United, Inc also provides educational workshops in collaboration with host organizations throughout Brooklyn and Queens. Currently, Victory United, Inc provides College workshops, Financial Aid Sessions and Social-Emotional workshops as well.
