Purpose We examine a mentorship component within a family-]based economic empowerment intervention for AIDS-orphaned children in Uganda. Method Mentorship was guided by a comprehensive ninesession curriculum. We present themes developed from the mentors' field reports and logs. Results Findings suggest that mentorship offers AIDS-orphaned children opportunities to develop and strengthen future plans. Moreover, the mentorship process was beneficial to both the mentees and their mentors. The program creates a positive life trajectory for a highly vulnerable group of youth. Conclusion The findings can be used to understand and design mentorship programs targeted at improving the psychosocial well-being of children and adolescents.
