Youth
Big Brothers Big Sisters serves children aged 7 and up who can benefit from having an additional positive adult role model. These youth are referred to Big Brothers Big Sisters through a parent, guardian, guidance counselor or teacher.

The reason behind a match is that a parent, guardian or teacher believes the child could benefit from the presence of an additional caring adult in his/her life.
