Abstract

Shepherd Community Center’s mission is to, “do life with our neighbors, and see their felt needs first-hand. Breaking down our preconceived notions and cultural blind-spots is key to achieving real impact in the lives of neighbors living in generational poverty,” (Shepherd Community Center, n.d.). They offer many services, including student ministry and after-school programming for preschool through high school. Key stakeholders identified that students would benefit from training in education participation, financial management, and health management. Mentoring relationships often benefit impoverished youths’ occupational performance, especially social participation (Mantovani et al., 2020; Quimby et al., 2018). The purpose of this peer mentorship program was to improve student- and caregiver-perceived occupational performance, skill mastery, and knowledge within six IADLs. When outcome measure responses were compiled, major themes in occupational improvement were social participation, financial management, work, and education. These findings support future program implementation at Shepherd to promote key occupational and skill development for their students.
