We recently received the following note from one of the producers of a new television program. It reads as follows:
“I work in television and would like to honor more programs like yours. I am currently working on a documentary-style program and we are looking for candidates to help mentor teens. This program is designed to give specific families hope after their teen meets a mentor who is on their level. This mentor can help them better understand their own emotions and better communicate with the people in their lives.
Here is a little bit more about the show:
Bunim/Murray Productions (producers of Project Runway and the documentary, Autism: The Musical) is casting a new show designed to help families in need. We are looking for an inspiring and passionate MENTOR for a troubled teenager. This mentor will work with the family and teen to change the family dynamics and help the teenager get on the right path. We’re searching for a person who can successfully build a relationship with the teen and inspire positive life changes.  If you or someone you know has the tools to evoke change and can effortlessly connect and communicate with a teen in crisis, please send photos and a description of your mentoring/social work or other related experience to mentorcasting {at} bunim-murray(.)com
We would love to give an amazing mentor a platform to show how much a dedicated friend could mean to a teen and their whole family.  Please pass along this information or putting me in the right direction in hopes of finding the perfect mentor for this project?  Or do you have a mentor in mind that might be interested in this experience?
