NQMS DESCRIPTION
The National Quality Mentoring System was developed by MENTOR: The National Mentoring Partnership, and its network of state affiliates.  Through a guided self-assessment and coaching process, NQMS helps mentoring programs adopt evidence-based mentoring standards and procedures based on the Elements of Effective Practice for Mentoring.  Programs receiving funding will be matched with a MM+ Consultant to create a tailored action plan that will assist their organization to improve the quality of its services.  Find more about NQMS here: https://www.mentoring.org/our-work/national-quality-mentoring-system/
