"Your goal is legitimate and right and just. You need to demonstrate your clout to the politicians." . . . . . . Phyllis Schlafly, 12/11/05, on PEP-Talk radio
Many members of
PEP truly understand the life changing events that occur at the
time of divorce and the difficult transition and life obstacles
that result. PEP Mentoring is part of our community outreach.
If you are
considering divorce, in the process of divorce, or having
difficulties adjusting during or after divorce, PEP Mentoring
may help you. While PEP Mentors cannot provide legal,
financial or psychological advice, talking with one of our
mentors may give you perspective on your situation and, most
importantly, help you understand that you are not alone. Many
have traveled the road you are on and have the scars and healing
to prove it.
If you have
survived your divorce and honorably want to help others, then we
encourage you to volunteer to become a PEP Mentor.
To request a
mentor or to become a mentor, please click

provide your name and telephone number in an email.
Note: PEP Mentors are not paid, licensed
or certified and do not offer legal, financial or psychological
advice. The PEP Mentor role is akin to the role that an
experienced AA member takes with a new AA member. When
requesting contact with a mentor your intentions must be honest,
legal and in the best interests of your children. PEP reserves
the right to refuse assignment of a mentor or to decertify a PEP
Mentor for any reason.
Rules
1.
PEP Mentors are offered
only to Non-Custodial Parent members of PEP. All discussions
between mentor and mentoree are to remain confidential unless
such discussions indicate that a party is considering committing
a crime – in which case the person learning of the anticipated
crime is to report it to the police.
2.
Mentoring is a volunteer
activity. All participants have the right to terminate contact
with their mentor or mentoree at any time for any reason.
3.
Participants in PEP
Mentoring must sign a Confidentiality Agreement and a
Participation Agreement. Participants must agree to the terms
of said agreements before being introduced to a mentor and/or
mentoree. Failure to follow said agreements will result in
suspension of participation. All participants in PEP Mentoring
participate at their own risk. PEP assumes no liability for the
conduct of any mentor or mentoree. All participants – by
signing their Participation Agreement – release PEP, PEP’s board
of directors, and/or any individual or other organization
affiliated with PEP from liability for said participant’s
participation in PEP Mentoring.
4.
A mentor will terminate
discussions with a mentoree should they determine in their best
judgment that the mentoree’s intentions are not honest, legal or
in the best interests of children.
5.
PEP Mentoring is not a dating
service. PEP will not provide mentoring services for those
seeking new relationships through our introductions. PEP
Mentoring will not facilitate mentoring between members of the
opposite sex.
