DESCRIPTION:Group mentoring\, as a recognized model in the mentoring field\, has grown in frequency and popularity\, so has the need for additional training for its practitioners. According to research conducted by MENTOR Maryland | DC\, group mentoring is the most prevalent model in Baltimore City. In this session we will delve into best practices for this model. \nLearning Objective: Participants will increase their understanding and knowledge about the alternatives to the one-on-one model of mentoring. Specifically\, the benefits of group mentoring structures where one adult or a small number of adults work together with a group of youth will be highlighted and examined to assess their efficacy\, advantages\, and the challenges to the group model related to training and supporting mentors.
