About the Mentoring Forums

Welcome to the Mentoring Forums, a website where youth mentoring professionals from all over the United States, Canada, and the rest of the world can share innovative program practices and tips on the art of mentoring. This is a place to ask questions of your peers, to disseminate the wisdom gained in working with today’s young people, and to engage in the conversations that will help shape the future of the youth mentoring movement.

The Mentoring Forums are free to join. Mentoring and youth development professionals, researchers and evaluators, funding agencies, and even mentors themselves are all encouraged to join the conversation. To join this community of mentoring professionals and advocates, simply click here to create a user account.

Please see our Frequently Asked Questions and User Guidelines for additional information about joining and using this site.

The Mentoring Forums are hosted by the National Mentoring Center at Education Northwest, a training and technical assistance provider working with school- and community-based mentoring programs across the country.

All questions, comments, permission requests, and suggestions should be directed to Forums Administrator Michael Garringer at Michael.Garringer@educationnorthwest.org or 503-275-9647.
