HOME PAGE

Kinship of Aitkin County is a non profit youth development program based in Aitkin County, Minnesota.  Our mission is to support youth and families through positive mentoring experiences, education and healthy community connections.

Kinship of Aitkin County Serves any child ages 5 - 17 that currently resides in the Aitkin County area along with the Isle community in Mille Lacs County of Minnesota.   We strive to provide many positive role models and influences in the lives of the children we serve through adult youth mentoring matches and youth development activities.

Kinship was formed by Christian seminary students working with inner city youth in the Twin Cities in 1954.  Today there are more than 47 affiliates nationwide bringing positive adult role models to all children that our programs serve.

Our goals include:

  • Providing new opportunities to youth that would not otherwise be available
  • Engage our youth in shaping their future and the future of our community
  • Promote positive community involvement through service learning initiatives
  • Giving our youth the power to make good choices
  • Educate our youth on a variety of life skills and topics so they can reach their full capacity as individuals
  • Offer positive guidance by providing a dedicated adult mentor

 

 

 Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike.
