Through our ABCN Connects initiative, we asked our mentors to share with students their personal and professional stories of resilience, adaptability and dealing with uncertainty or change.
These short video stories are here to offer motivation, inspiration, hope and practical tips for young people as they think about the future. They come from a wide variety of ABCN mentors, from CEOs to recent graduates and ABCN program alumni.
Teachers and students: we’ve put together a discussion guide as a suggested way for you to watch these messages. Click here to download the resource to use at home or in the classroom while watching these stories of lifelong learning.
