Interior Design, 2020

Mentor is a resource center and safe space for men of all ages located at 1096 W. Broad Street in Franklinton, Ohio. The facility is housed in the previous engine house NO.10. Mentors goal is to break down the social constructs which many men face today. The resource center hopes to address problematic issues from their roots as well as guide men through their stages of growth. Mentor's main focus is concerned with young men who come from fatherless homes and strives to provide them with the guidance and resources that they need to be the best they can be. By providing these resources and tools, Mentor hopes to expose young men to new experiences by connecting their known interests to their unknown interests.
