MENTORING PARTNERSHIP:The Fairfax Mentoring Partnership (FMP) began as an initiative of the Fairfax Partnership for Youth (FPY) in September 1999, after it was determined that there was a gap in the number of youth who need mentors and the number presently being served. Mentoring works. Research shows that 46 percent of mentored teens are less likely to use drugs, 59 percent improve academic performance, and 73 percent become more goal-oriented. Mentored kids are more likely to do well in school, develop better relationships with adults, and have improved self-discipline.
