About us
Mission: Teaching youth to succeed in ALL of life's races. Vision: We are committed to building a community of caring relationships in support of our youth. Who We Are: Bolder Options is a comprehensive youth mentoring nonprofit organization, supporting at-risk youth through: mentoring, physical activity, nutrition, and leadership. To eliminate delinquent, unhealthy behaviors, we provide our youth with family, school, and community resources such as 1 - 1 mentoring, tutoring, and wellness activities. In turn, this builds life-long healthy habits, and confidence for our youth to become successful adults. Who we serve: Youth in our programs live in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Rochester, MN. Adult mentors and volunteers are within commuting distances of these metro areas.
