Paul Bartley joins us this week on the show! Paul works with me at Youth Unlimited here in Toronto, specifically serving in the Jane & Finch community. 

For most of his life, Paul has made it his goal to partner with youth in his neighbourhood and help them reach their full life potential. As a Community Youth Mentor, he runs two programs in the Jane-Finch area, and also focuses on dedicated one-on-one mentoring time. This includes Iron Fruits, which is a fitness mentoring program that teaches character skills through the discipline of fitness. 

Another significant initiative Paul is involved with is the Hoop 2 Hope basketball program, which has over 60 young men in attendance. Through this program, participants are supported in their journey to manhood, by mentoring, field trips, and sports activities. 

Paul is also Youth Unlimited's Mentor Specialist for the newly launched BECC internship program, where he walks closely with interns to develop their growth into young community leaders.
