Mentoring & Befriending in Shelters Toolkit
After Shelter in a Pack, this is the second toolkit to have been developed by Housing Justice. It is aimed specifically at Shelters wanting to offer such a service.
You can download the full Toolkit here >>
The toolkit is divided into two sections. In the first section there are information sheets that give general information and guidance on how to set up a mentoring and/or befriending project in a Winter Night Shelter. The second section is made up of 22 resources from M&M that you can adapt to suit your project.
As each Winter Night Shelter context is different we suggest that you use the framework in this resource to develop your own project.
The toolkit broadly covers all the relevant aspects of setting up a mentoring or befriending project in a Winter Night Shelter. It does not go into detail about specific areas such as insurance, monitoring and evaluation but points you to more detailed guides in these areas.
