The bill, S. 224, is a concurrent resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to officially recognize January 2025 as "Mentoring Month" in South Carolina. The resolution emphasizes the significance of mentoring in promoting the personal, academic, and professional development of young people. It highlights the role of the South Carolina Mentors Network (SCMN) in fostering meaningful relationships between mentors and mentees, which in turn empowers youth to make positive life choices and contributes to the overall well-being of families and communities across the state.

Furthermore, the resolution calls upon citizens, businesses, and organizations in South Carolina to celebrate the value of mentoring and to support initiatives that expand mentoring opportunities within their communities. By designating January as Mentoring Month, the General Assembly aims to raise awareness about the critical role mentors play in shaping the future of the state's youth and to encourage greater participation in mentoring programs.
