</strong>is to improve the quality and effectiveness of mentoring programs and relationships across the country by supporting practitioners to more deeply incorporate evidence-based practices into their work. In 2013, the Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) selected MENTOR to establish a national training and technical assistance center focused solely on mentoring.

This Research Board is comprised of prominent mentoring and youth development researchers who have expertise in areas that are representative of the diversity in youth mentoring program models, settings for implementation, and specific populations and outcomes of interest.</p> <p>The NMRC Research Board also helps develop a repository of mentoring program resources (e.g., training guides, handbooks and curricula) that are intended to promote positive youth outcomes, particularly those relating to the prevention of delinquent behavior, victimization and juvenile justice system involvement. All of these materials are reviewed by the Research Board to assess the evidence that supports their effectiveness.</p> <p><a class="text-btn"
