NEWS ALERT FROM MPNY;
Tune in this Sunday, January 29th to FRESH FM 102.7 FM Magazine at 6:30am and last.fm Dialogue 101 at 7:30am to listen to MPNY Executive Director Jean Cohen’s interview with Deborah Gordon of CBS Radio. The interview was taped today at CBS Radio where they discussed the efforts and impact of the MPNY Young Professional Advisory Board (YPAB), a broad conversation regarding the benefits of mentoring youth, various ways to get involved in mentoring and the National Mentoring Summit that just took place in Washington DC. Also discussed – and with specific impact to NYC youth – was the ongoing collaboration between MPNY and the Success Mentors program headed by Leslie Cornfeld, Chair of Mayor Bloomberg’s Task Force on Chronic Absenteeism and Truancy.
THANK YOU to all the volunteers, program coordinators, mentees and mentors who came to Dave & Busters today - in the storm - to celebrate the magic that is the relationship between mentee and mentor!
We hope you all had a wonderful, fun morning and enjoyed the SNOW!
