BBBSWNC learns lots during BBBS of America’s national conference

This week, our BBBSWNC staff and incoming Board President, Debbie Charlton, participated in the virtual Big Brothers Big Sisters national conference! We have learned lots of new information, exciting news about impacts of mentorship on youth, technology how to’s, and a great deal about the theme of the conference, JEDI (Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion), which have been important themes throughout the week. Pictured is Artis Stevens, president and CEO of BBBS of America, and the panelists of the conference’s closing seminar, “Inclusion: Building Trust Rooted in Authenticity and Intentionality.”
