Mentor Re-Clearances
No matter how long you’ve been a mentor with BEST Kids, all mentors are required to complete the re-clearance process annually. If you are eligible for re-clearance, our team will contact you directly with next steps and the specific clearances required based on your year of mentoring. We encourage you to review the Re-Clearance Policy to stay informed on what to expect and to access detailed instructions for completing your re-clearances.
