Team Up Mentoring’s mission is to foster generational change for families affected by trauma. The organization describes itself as a local community of educators, case managers, and volunteer mentors who work together with Monroe volunteers and staff to provide age-appropriate, holistic care for each family member. It states that each child and family has a team of mentors, teachers, doctors, counselors, parents, tutors and more committed to helping them succeed, and that it is a mentoring and case management nonprofit that is a consistent presence for kids up to three nights a week. Team Up Mentoring reports that it starts with trauma-informed care, takes a local, team approach, and invests in long-term relationships with each kid and family, beginning as young as age 3 and continuing until age 21, including a commitment to walk beside families through high school graduation. The program notes that it is here for the long haul, making up to an 18-year investment in each kid starting at age 3, and that all services are sustained entirely by sponsors and donors.
The leadership team includes Founder and Executive Director Anna Blount, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer Amy Hunnewell, Family Life Director Aydee Bailey, and Teen Leadership Academy Director Brady Brent. In 2006, Anna Blount completed her degree from the University of Georgia in Biological Science and began volunteering in the city of Monroe, GA with a church ministry, and over ten years later she continues to research and consider ways to serve vulnerable children and their families. Amy Hunnewell earned her Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Georgia and is an Internationally Certified Prevention Specialist. While in Georgia, Aydee Bailey graduated from Athens Technical College with an Associate Degree in Social Work and completed a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Piedmont College in May 2019. One staff member went on to play basketball and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington.
Volunteers describe their experiences in several ways. One teen mentor says that volunteering at Team Up was a heartwarming experience and that the teen group is loving and eager to learn. Another teen mentor, Jocelyn, says that all of the kids at Team Up know the mentors are not going anywhere and are never going to disappear on them. Charles, a teen mentor, says that volunteering has opened his eyes in ways he did not expect and that the teens have taught him as much or more than he has taught them. An elementary mentor with over 25 years of involvement with non-profits says Team Up is by far the best and that mentoring there for over six years is one of the most fulfilling times of the week. Another elementary mentor says that all someone has to do is show up and be themselves, that the training is fast and fun, and that the kids make it worthwhile.
