Near Peer Mentors (NPMs)* serve three essential functions in the classroom: (1) they work alongside teachers to create classroom conditions that nurture student cultural identity, cultivate a sense of belonging, and build shared responsibility for learning between teacher-student-mentor; (2) they offer a community insider perspective to teachers that build awareness and understanding of the youth experience; and (3) they build positive connections with students to reinforce engagement and increase aspiration for educational and career opportunities. NPMs build a bridge between students and teachers with the intent to ensure that all classrooms are inclusive and empowering for every student that enters the space. NPMs serve as co-educators, community experts, youth advocates, and activists for education while providing teachers with valuable information and insight about how to support student engagement, belonging, and academic achievement. They are partners withteachers and students in the classroom.
