About us	VIP – for Volunteers in Prevention – has matched over 2500 young people with adults who have helped guide them toward successful lives. Our mentors come from everywhere – small businesses, corporations, the educational community, and faith-based organizations. They work with children one to one in our Community-Based program, or travel to a school or organization once a week for Location-Specific mentoring, also working with children individually.
