ACE Mentor Program of the Capital Region board members, mentor leads, and committee volunteers are invited to tour The Connect Center for Youth as we continue exploring a potential shared-space partnership between the two organizations.

Following a successful initial visit, this second tour will provide ACE leadership with an opportunity to experience the facility firsthand, learn more about The Connect Center’s work, and better understand how the space may support future ACE programming, student engagement, mentor collaboration, and shared community initiatives.

The visit will also offer time to discuss the potential partnership and ask questions ahead of the 2026–2027 ACE season kickoff in October.

We will be joined by Ben Williams, Executive Director, and Alicia Phillips, Program Director, who will guide the tour and share more about the organization and facility.

**This event is intended for current ACE board members, mentor leads, committee members, and invited program volunteers.
