Ensuring Local Field Leadership: NABProfessionals strengthens and expands local mentoring leadership to identify innovations and systemic solutions to ultimately provide the access and capacity necessary to drive increased quality mentoring relationships for young people and strengthen communities.
Expanding the Movement: NABProfessionals accelerates and inﬂuences public and political will to drive civic engagement, mentor recruitment, policy change, and public/private investment that deliver the relationships necessary for young people.
Inﬂuencing Systems: We know that in order to harness the full potential of mentoring relationships — and to scale — we must meet people where they are and integrate relationship-based solutions into the systems they are navigating. That’s why we’ve focused our lens on workforce and education spaces, bringing mentoring training to managers and employees, schools and school districts.
