West Orlando resident Jay Braun has contributed over 100 hours of his time to mentoring Community Based Care’s foster youth. He has been a mentor to his mentee for over a year, eventually taking his mentee’s younger brother under his wing as well. Because of his guidance, both boys have been able to work on behavioral issues, learn proper manners, and become better siblings to one another. Jay has been applauded by CBCCF’s case management team for helping to smooth the brothers’ transition into care with their grandmother. Because these boys live with only their grandmother, Jay has been able to partake in “father-like” activities and conversations.
