NBM is about the language we use with youth- as it is ULTIMATELY their choices day-to-day that leads them down different paths.\u00a0 NBM is also about where the youth and the helpers are. How do we use the education system better in this one way. An ideal and aspirational mentoring approach <em>should<\/em> exist in schools! If we can prioritize Tier 3 youth, the Ministry, and Federal and Provincial Policy will make additional planning blocks, FLEX time and\/or an elective in Mentoring available and possible. We are piloting the feasibility, acceptability and effectiveness of NBM now in Vancouver School Board (VSB), Vancouver Alternative Secondary Schools (VASS). It is a 100% school embedded approach to mentoring. NBM is both developmental and instrumental, and uses Motivational Interviewing as its foundational communication style. We seek to increase the engagement and success of involved students.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>NEEDS BASED MENTORING FORMS FOR RESEARCH 2026-27<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3>NBM School Professional CONSENT<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/theeducationpusher\/files\/2026\/08\/NBM-Consent-Form-2026-27.pdf\">NBM Consent Form 2026-27<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>NBM STUDENT CONSENT<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/theeducationpusher\/files\/2026\/08\/NBM-Consent-Students-2026-27.pdf\">NBM Consent Students 2026-27<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>SDQ<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/theeducationpusher\/files\/2026\/08\/SDQ-for-NBM-2026-27.pdf\">SDQ for NBM 2026-27<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>NBM Form<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/theeducationpusher\/files\/2026\/08\/NBM-FORM-2026-27.pdf\">NBM FORM 2026-27<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>NBM EC<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/theeducationpusher\/files\/2026\/08\/NBM-Elements-Coding-NBM-EC-FINAL-2026-27.pdf\">NBM Elements Coding (NBM-EC) FINAL 2026-27<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>NEEDS BASED MENTORING GUIDEBOOK:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/theeducationpusher\/files\/2026\/08\/NEEDS-BASED-MENTORING-GUIDEBOOK-FOR-2026-27.pdf\">NEEDS BASED MENTORING GUIDEBOOK FOR 2026-27<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>NEEDS BASED MENTORING Online Training Modules:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Module 1<\/strong> NBM, an Overview<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Aptos,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Module 1:<\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/3cfFS1c3muc?si=9TPObMIhMBtIpTcV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/3cfFS1c3muc?si=9TPObMIhMBtIpTcV<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Module 2<\/strong>\u00a0 NBM Element Engage, Basics of Motivational Interviewing<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Aptos,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Module 2:<\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/bCFMySputYw?si=5MaflaT0NgXiweSP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/bCFMySputYw?si=5MaflaT0NgXiweSP<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Module 3<\/strong> NBM Elements, Teach &amp; Structure<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Aptos,sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Module 3:<\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2ymrzlDewC8?si=OXImrsM2ftHj4h57\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/2ymrzlDewC8?si=OXImrsM2ftHj4h57<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h5>NBM Article in Child &amp; Youth Services:<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/eprint\/XWCTPD86VSZR7XJEAZEW\/full?target=10.1080\/0145935X.2023.2261370\">Cloth, A.
