And big thanks to OJJDP for supporting this event as part of their National Mentoring Resource Center. One of the best ways to improve mentoring is to improve mentoring research. So join us for two days of presentations on the theme of "Mentoring for the 21st Century."

Very sad to hear of the passing of Dr. Edward Latessa, the renowned criminologist at the U of Cincinnati. Ed was the very first guest I recorded for my podcast many years ago. Had a wonderful chat about the intersection of mentoring and the justice system. tinyurl.com/3ep9paw8

I greatly appreciated that Ed saw the tremendous value that mentoring can add to efforts to reduce recidivism. He felt that meaningful relationships were a real missing ingredient in justice work, especially for youth in the system. Condolences to Ed's family on their loss.
