The purpose of Morph Mentoring is to assist youth in triumphing over the odds life may bombard them with. We set a  foundation for our youth to always stand flat footed upon, no matter the circumstances. Our mentors use very specific strategies and detailed step by step instruction when developing mentor/mentee relationships.

Our mission is to morph the mentality,    ambition, and lifestyle of our future   leaders through positive inspirational  relationships, strategic planning and accomplishment.
