Bresee Institute is continuously looking for "guides" and "mentors" to work in the Life Connections Program. Participants need to be trained, screened and credentialized to work with us. A "guide" offers structured discipleship training to a group of hand-selected men varying in numbers from 5-18 over an 18 month period, in sessions varying from 2-4 hours each week. A "mentor" counsels an individual man on a volunteer basis for one hour, once a week.
