Abstract
SUMMARY Online mentoring–creating a supportive, caring, online friendship between an adult volunteer and a protéAgéA–is one of the most popular forms of online volunteering, and new programs are launched regularly, usually involving adult mentors and youth protéAgéAs. From December 1996 through February 2001, the Virtual Volunteering Project sought to create an index and summary of all known online mentoring programs, to research existing programs' effective practices and program results, to research how effective practices for traditional, face-to-face mentoring could be applied to online programs, and to share these practices and other information relating to online mentoring via the project's Web site. This article summarizes the findings and provides a listing and description of all known online mentoring programs.
