Final Month Focus: Finishing Strong

As we approach the end of this year's mentorship cycle, it's a great time to help your mentee reflect, plan, and feel confident moving forward.聽

Consider focusing your final conversations on:

  • Reflecting on your mentee's growth and progress
  • Discussing summer plans (internships, jobs, or skill-building)
  • Sharing 1-2 key pieces of advice they can carry forward
  • Schedule a "final meeting" to wrap up your experience


Final Month Conversation Starters

Not sure what to discuss? Try asking:

  • What are you most excited or nervous about this summer?
  • What's one skill you want to focus on developing?
  • How can I continue to support you after the program ends?
  • What has been most valuable from our time together?


Engagement Opportunities

Continue Your Mentorship Journey

Interested in continuing as a mentor next cycle?

Mentor registration for the next cycle opens in June 2026. Returning mentors will simply update their existing form.

Mentors will be matched with a new mentee next cycle, but are welcome to continue their current mentorship outside of the program.


Recognition & Impact
