Outreach & Engagement Programs and Scholars Database

UConn and the CT Training School are participating in a mentor/mentee partnership to support youthful offenders incarcerated in two residential facilities. The training school is in Middletown, CT, and Journey House is on the grounds of Nachaug Hospital in Willimantic, CT. Students from Journey House visit PA2SS, the African American Cultural Center peer mentoring program, to share their stories and meet with students. Representatives from the Center travel to Journey House several times a semester to work with the residents.
