About

In 1988, Dr. Curt Rhodes founded Questscope, an International NGO serving at-risk youth in the Middle East. The key to Questscope’s approach was partnering with local community leaders and organizations to identify and address the greatest needs of youth. By enabling community feedback to drive the research and program development, an innovative mentoring model emerged that both empowered youth and transformed the communities.

In 2006, Stefan Van Voorst was introduced to Questscope’s mentoring program on a trip to Amman, Jordan. Experiencing Questscope’s impact through the stories of youth and staff inspired Stefan to implement the same mentoring model in the Twin Cities.

In the summer of 2011, Stefan began conversations with North View Middle School in Brooklyn Park. The goal was to develop a mentoring program that would provide support to students struggling within the school environment. These conversations were the catalyst for creating One2One.

Five years later, One2One has matched over 400 young people with mentors and has current programs at North View Middle School, Brooklyn Middle STEAM School, and Crest View Elementary in Brooklyn Park.
