Here's how they describe their organization: Big Brothers Big Sisters of Acadiana is a youth mentoring organization. We unite young people (Littles) with caring, positive adult role models (Bigs) in professionally supported 1-to-1 mentoring friendships at no cost to the families served. We believe that every youth, with the right support, can reach their fullest potential. Our evidence-based 1-to-1 mentoring model is designed to bridge the opportunity gap by meeting kids where they are and empowering them to transform their lives and their communities. These mentoring relationships provide Littles with the tools they will need to overcome the adversities they face and develop the characteristics they need for academic, social, and economic success.
