This pilot study is limited to those who are eligible under our CPV Pilot Study Requirements. This ensures that the data being collected is reliable and is not skewed by the variability of implementation.

To be eligible, there must be an existing or ready-to-launch mentoring program that will involve volunteering with K-12 youth for at least 10 meet-ups. In addition, being a part of the pilot study involves the following commitments:

1. Assigning a staff/faculty member as the CPV point of contact
2. Sending the mentors the three-stage survey links (pre-training, post-training, and end of term)
   Please note: the surveys cannot be enforced as “mandatory.”
3. Scheduling and arranging a facilitation of the CPV training and providing the tentative date(s)
