Mentor family activity

With the mentor family activity, young people who have come on their own to Finland as asylum seekers can get involved in Finnish family life and daily routine. They learn Finnish and have safe adults around them. The activity helps improve the wellbeing of the young people and supports their integration.

Families of all kinds can become mentor families. The initiative is voluntary and both mentors and mentees receive training.
