Mission
The Connections Student Mentoring Program connects UNF students from underrepresented social identity groups to supportive faculty and staff who help them acclimate socially and welcome them into the Osprey family. The program aims to assist students in the process of making positive choices in their daily lives by providing guidance, support, motivation and advisement towards the fulfillment of their goals.
