Nonprofits who work with youth and provide mentoring need to provide better evidence base tracking to show the results of their services. (assuming they have created the best outcomes.)  The lack of evidence causes mentoring programs to be adversely hit during times of economic recessions. The number of youth in the country who lack a father due to the high incidence of divorce is shocking.  Divorce is above 56%.  The science has shown that most youth need a connection to their fathers to be able to develop to their full potential.

Fatherhood comes with responsibility and being accountable to the never ending questions.  Mentoring programs just might be what insurers to cover to make more successful, healthy, well adjusted youth.
