For thousands of youth around the country and many right here in our region, the need for some extra support is vital. This year alone, Big Brothers Big Sisters has impacted over 40,000 youth in over 1100 communities across Canada, including here in Peterborough. Their mission is to provide mentorship for anyone who needs it, and they need volunteers to address a growing waitlist. Executive director Brent Shepherd and volunteer Big Brother Ian Armstrong join Tricia Mason on Global News Morning Peterborough.
