About reset mentoring
Working exclusively with Williamson County Juvenile Services,
Reset Mentoring is a non-profit organization that was created to help teens
RESET their lives... Whatever that looks like for them!
Over the past 10 years, we have found that one size fits all just doesn’t work.
The teens we work with are as different as you and me.
They have their God-given talents, dreams, and future and we have found that for them to succeed long-term we need to walk alongside them in their next best step.
here is a short informational video about reset's one on one mentoring
