The Juvenile Justice Institute is holding a Dialogue with Mentoring Programs on February 1st, 2018. At this dialogue, we will discuss best practices and share what the most successful programs across Nebraska are doing in order to provide the best possible outcomes for youth. 

We're aware that certain programs are achieving better outcomes than others in Nebraska. While data can demonstrate outcomes, it's essential to hear the "how" and "why" from the program directors themselves in order to fully understand those outcomes. During this day you'll hear about research relevant to Mentoring Programs and leave with knowledge on how to improve your program's outcomes.

Registration is open until Thursday, January 18 at 5 P.M. CST.
