Next Gen Mentoring illuminates the potential of local Dallas high school students. Through pairing students with adults in our community, who volunteer their time and are able to share their experiences and knowledge of different career paths, Next Gen supports students in making informed decisions about their future during a crucial stage in their lives.

​

Next Gen also focuses on students developing soft skills that will help them succeed academically and professionally by pairing them with mentors chosen specifically for them. These mentors can guide them to recognizing their full potential and challenge them to think bigger and bolder about their future.

​

Mentors meet with students twice a month, both on campus and virtually. Next Gen Mentoring encourages mentors and students to identify the subject areas that are most valuable to them and tailor their sessions accordingly. Some of these areas include: navigating high school, creating a resume, preparing for interviews, choosing a major, paying for college, and life outside of school, among many others.
