Recognizing January 2025 as "National Mentoring Month".

HRES 160 designates January 2025 as "National Mentoring Month" to highlight the positive impact of mentoring relationships on young people. The resolution emphasizes how mentoring improves academic performance, mental health, career readiness, and social skills - particularly for underserved youth - and addresses the "mentoring gap" where one in three young people lacks a supportive adult outside their family. It calls for expanding mentoring programs in schools, communities, and workplaces without creating new laws or funding. As a symbolic resolution, it aims to raise public awareness and encourage participation in existing mentoring initiatives.
