SUMMARY:Who Mentored You? Research Study
DESCRIPTION:Register for this webinar here. \nWho Mentored You? — a new research study by MENTOR — examines the prevalence of mentors in the lives of Americans growing up and takes a fresh look at the “mentoring gap” of 1-in-3 young people growing up without a mentor to see if we have made progress in increasing mentoring relationships over the last decade. The study offers a fresh multigenerational look at the mentoring experiences of all Americans\, from the Baby Boomer Generation to today’s Gen Z young adults. The full report offers an insightful look into who in our society is finding mentoring relationships and where\, offering special insights into the meaningful actions of mentors and the impact adults feel that mentoring in the formative years has had on their lives. Most importantly\, the findings also support an urgent call to action to meet the rising mentoring needs to today’s young people. \nWho Mentored You? will be released in conjunction with the National Mentoring Summit on January 26-27\, 2023. This webinar features study authors Mike Garringer (MENTOR) and Chelsea Benning (Olympic Research and Strategy) discussing the study’s methodology and findings\, with an emphasis on five core themes and meaningful steps the mentoring field can take to make use of these results. If you are interested in the growth of the mentoring movement\, a generational understanding of mentoring access and impact\, and the needs of young people for more mentoring in this moment\, please join us for an hour of learning and discussion about this new study. \nRegister for this webinar here.
