The Henry Ford

The Youth Mentorship Program partners at-risk young people from the Wayne-Westland Community Schools with an adult museum mentor. Students will receive on-the-job training to teach them problem-solving, team-building, and work ethic. Through the program’s support and resources, these young people will stay in school, complete graduation requirements, and prepare for post-secondary school or the work force. The Museum will also develop a workshop to teach community leaders how to develop similar mentorship programs of their own.
