Below are some other comments from past participants.

I really enjoyed the conference and meeting everyone-- the experience was so informative and reaffirming. Since I'm relatively new to this whole business, I felt like we were the only organization struggling now with funding and exposure. It was great to hear other people talk about their organizations and not feel so alone. I look forward to staying connected as well. As promised, I'm sending a link for the blog post I did about the conference. I put in the picture of you and Tramaine that I took as well.

What a great day Friday was at the Tutor/Mentor Conference in Chicago! This is either my 3rd or 4th one and I learn something new every time that enhances my programming and benefits my young people!   Alysa Lewandowski, Tutor/Mentor Program Coordinator at CEP Youth Leadership (This was posted on Linked In.

We met years ago when I worked at Erie House and later, when I ran the UPrising Youth Program in Little Village. I sent my staff to some of your Tutor/Mentor Connection events which they always loved and had much to share afterward.  Message received on Linkedin, 2014
