Community leaders on the need for a consistent mentoring network.

“In my 42 years of building young adults I believe their number one need is consistency. They need a constant message and see someone actually living that message consistently. The Legacy Network I believe will bring this to the young adults who will participate in Legacy's program. One of my favorite sayings: not your intensity but your consistency.”

“Legacy Mentors is not making another mentorship program, but bringing existing mentors and nonprofits together to work alongside principals and counselors toward a common goal - our most hurting kids. This is something communities across America desperately need: a sustainable model that connects caring adults, organizations and schools to mentor the next generation with wisdom, accountability and purpose. Legacy Network's vision for serving and certifying mentors has the potential to create lasting impact for families throughout Tennessee.”

“Having worked in public service and with numerous nonprofit organizations, I recognize the importance of strong community partnerships that truly serve young people. Legacy Mentors is creating a practical and scalable framework that brings together schools, ministries, businesses and volunteers to make a measurable difference in the lives of our youth.”
