What is Kinship?
Kinship of Morrison County is a non-profit youth mentoring program based in Little Falls, Minnesota, whose mission is to help kids grow through the "guidance and companionship of an adult friend." Through Kinship, we strive to provide many positive role models and influences in the lives of Kinkids (kids in Kinship) through matches and various types of group mentoring activities. The bottom line is we want to help kids grow through positive friendships with adults.
Kinship was formed by Christian seminary students working with inner city youth in the Twin Cities in 1954. The idea of bringing a caring adult into the life of a child was so promising, that Kinship affiliates
began to open their doors throughout the Midwest. Kinship spread to Morrison County in the middle 1990's, replacing a different mentoring program
that had been there for twenty years. Currently, there are 47 Kinship affiliates
throughout the Midwest, with over 25 in Minnesota. For more information
about Kinship nationally, check out its website at
www.kinshipinc.org.
