Little is known about how mentors' interactions with youths' families and broader social networks influences the mentoring relationship while considering differences in race and socioeconomic status between the mentor and the youth. This study utilized a constructivist grounded theory to examine how non-Black volunteer mentors perceived their interactions with the youth's family impacted the youth mentoring relationship. The findings highlight the many benefits of mentors establishing a genuine connection with youths' families and social networks and underline some of the difficulties associated with racial and class differences between the mentor and the youths' family and social network
