Kinship Partners is a nonprofit youth mentoring organization serving families within Crow Wing county, southern Cass county and Staples/Motley area of Minnesota by providing positive role models to youth in our communities.
Why is mentoring important? Our community’s
future rests on the hopes and dreams of our children and youth.
Every child deserves a responsible and concerned adult who will provide
guidance and support, help set and accomplish goals, and act as a
positive role model.

Match of the Months: Kinship Partners is proud to honor our newest Match
of the Month. Paul and
Stephanie Ouren and family were matched with Kodi Ringheimer six years
ago! As so often
happens in these long-term relationships, Kodi has become part of the
Ouren family. Stephanie
states, “Kodi fits in so well with our family – he goes where we go!”
In addition to family activities such as preparing and eating
meals, fishing and camping, Paul worked with Kodi to help him gain his
Firearm’s Safety Certificate. As Kodi talked about his partnership, it was
apparent that he considers the Ouren’s to be much more than friends.
He described the fun he had fishing and camping with them, but he
went on to state, “They help me with my homework and help me keep my
grades up. They are always
there for me when I want to talk about problems I’m having.” Kodi and his partners exemplify what an enriching experience a partnership can be for all involved. Congratulations to Kodi, Paul, Stephanie and their family as they continue growing as friends and family.
