LATM was founded in 1992 and launched its first after-school team mentoring program shortly thereafter. Since then, LATM has positively impacted 32,000 young lives in under-resourced communities through 3 million hours of service by 10,00 volunteer mentors.
Our Mission: LATM’s mission statement is to guide middle school students growing up in under-resourced communities to recognize and reach their full potential as members of our community. Through a school-based team approach to mentoring, both virtually and in person, young adolescents are given the tools and support necessary to make positive choices during a critical period in their lives.
