MentorPRO is currently working with six BBBS agencies, including Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah, Tennessee, Washington County, Milwaukee, Wisconsin Shorline, and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County and the Inland Empire
These agencies span community-based, site-based, and technology-enriched models such as Mentor 2.0 and school-based programs, serving youth from middle school through the transition to college and career. Within these partnerships, MentorPRO supports core BBBS practices, including careful matching, ongoing staff oversight, and regular contact between Bigs and Littles, while also providing structured check-ins, goal-tracking, and communication tools that can be accessed securely from any device. This combination allows staff to monitor engagement and outcomes in real time and respond quickly when matches need additional support.
BBBS staff use MentorPRO to organize and document mentor–mentee interactions, guide mentors in using evidence-based strategies, and maintain continuity of support across in-person and virtual settings. Features such as brief check-ins, goal plans, and tailored content modules help mentors move beyond informal support toward more intentional work on academic, social, and life skills, while still preserving the relational core that defines BBBS mentoring
For agencies that run technology-enriched models like mentor2.0, MentorPRO’s messaging and structured curriculum tools align with weekly online engagement, in-person meetings, and college and career readiness content. Across these settings, the platform gives staff a clear window into how frequently matches are interacting, what goals they are working on, and where additional coaching or resources might be needed.
Agencies report that the combination of BBBS’s proven relationship model and MentorPRO’s structured, goal-focused tools makes it easier to sustain consistent contact, especially when schedules are tight or when matches are transitioning across schools, jobs, or communities Staff can quickly identify youth who may be at risk of disengagement, check in with mentors, and adjust supports rather than relying solely on periodic phone calls or spreadsheets
As Maria Forrester, m2.0 Program Manager, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah “I am eternally grateful for MentorPRO because it made things easier for me while I had a million [programming] things going on!”
