Peer mentoring done right

MentorPRO is the natural extension of decades of our research that shows that mentoring is most effective when it...

“In this meta-analysis, the effect size for supervised cross-age peer mentoring was more than double that observed in past meta-analyses” Cross-age Peer Mentoring Programs Are Especially Effective. American Journal of Community Psychology. Burton, Raposa, Poon, Stems, & Rhodes (2022)

“Analyses of 48 mentoring studies of youth outcomes revealed the overall effect size of targeted programs to be more than double that of non-specific relational approaches overall…and three times more effective in improving academic, psychological, and social functioning.” Targeted mentoring is two to three times more effective. Journal of Youth and Adolescence. Christensen, Rhodes, et al. (2020)

“Mentoring programs are well positioned to help bridge gaps in service…a “stepped-care” service model that starts with the least intensive, simplest approaches and moves toward more intensive services only when the former have proven ineffective” Being accountable to mentors can bridge service gaps. American Journal of Community Psychology. McQuillin, Hagler, Werntz, & Rhodes (2022)

“Support from [176 UMass Boston] students' newly acquired mentors during the transition was associated with a greater sense of belonging in the university community.” Mentors help college students feel a greater sense of belonging. Journal of College Student Retention Research. Hagler, Christensen, Rhodes (2022)

“A large, nationally representative sample of 5,684 college graduates revealed that first-generation college students…were less able to identify a supportive mentoring relationship during college. ” First-generation students struggles to find college mentors. Annals of the New York Academy of Science. Raposa…Rhodes (2020).
