Abstract

A method for providing incentive to mentors of at-risk mentees is described. The method includes the steps of determining an at-risk mentee's prospects in the absence of mentoring, and then tracking behavior and progress in a period of time, determining the mentee's achievement of important milestones, avoidance of costs to society, and/or income and income tax payments during the same period of time, and calculating a financial incentive to the mentee's mentor, wherein the amount of the financial incentive is calculated based on the mentee's behavior, achievement of important milestones, avoidance of costs to society, and/or income tax payments during the period of time.
