about us

 Peacemakers Inc. is a unique non-profit 21st Century school day mentoring & social emotional model that reacheschildren (K-12) who need servicesbut who are often not served by traditional mentoring organizations. These children often are youth of color from low-income single-parent households who are entangled with a plethora of challenges ranging from poor attendance to

anti-social behavior, low academic achievement, and lack of parent support. The characteristics are high risk symptomatic indicators that feed into “the pipeline to prison” ideology.

Peacemaker’s Inc. mentors are visible on campus daily, engaging in prevention and intervention of students’ conflictsand issues. Mentors also discuss personal needs, academic and behavior concernsduring weekly check-in with our students. The school day model minimizesoffice referrals/suspensions by creating an exceptionally high level of mentee/mentor contact as well as provide daily or asneeded contact with parents to insure constant awareness of their child’s

day-to-day activities. Our liaison role with parents builds trust with the school; thus, we serve as a key link that bridges close consultation with administrators, teachers, counselors, psychologists, parents, and outside resourcesto galvanize individual solutionsfor the students/families.
