Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) programs are built on the power of relationships.
But for staff, keeping track of match updates, check-ins, and reporting can take up valuable time—time that could be spent supporting Bigs and Littles directly.
MentorPRO is here to help. An evidence-based mentoring platform, MentorPRO makes life easier for BBBS chapters by:
- Supporting Match Support Specialists (MSS) with real-time engagement data
- Keeping Bigs and Littles active through automated check-ins

MentorPRO is partnered with and built for BBBS—to keep relationships strong while making staff work more manageable.
“Since adopting MentorPRO, our staff spends less time chasing updates and more time supporting matches.”
