Volunteers needed to mentor young members

More than two dozen young members have signed up for an NPC mentor. To meet the needs, the club is seeking volunteer mentors.

Open to both journalists and communicators, the program is intended to create the kind of inter-generational connections that were always a benefit of belonging to the club but are increasingly difficult to establish in the 24/7 news cycle of today. If you’d welcome a chance to give back to the profession and the club, please sign up by Oct. 23 at the new Mentoring Program page on the NPC website (works best with Google Chrome).

A task force of members from the Professional Development, Young Members and Membership committees will attempt to make matches by Nov. 1. This is a free benefit of NPC membership, so only members may apply. For more information or to get help signing up, contact [email protected]
