Information for State Agencies/Nonprofit Organizations

Serve as a Mentor

Each year, we ask talented, senior-level administrators in state agencies and nonprofit organizations to serve as mentors to our fellows.

Expectations of Mentors

*   Provide a full-time experience for 10 weeks in the summer (approximately 4 days a week, 8 hours a day)
*   Incorporate the fellow into your organization, providing a workspace, include the fellow in events and meetings, etc.
*   Create and engage the fellow in unique and meaningful opportunities for learning and growth
*   Complete a mid-point and final evaluation of the fellow
*   Attend a mentor collaboration meeting (date TBD)
*   Attend our Opening and Closing celebrations in support of the fellow (dates TBD)

Additionally, we invite nonprofit organizations to serve as clients in the Capstone Project component where students work in groups as consultants, researching and conceptualizing a plan to address a need or issue your organization is experiencing.
