The MAPP program aims to cultivate the next generation of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) professional leaders through mentoring, skills building, and networking. The program pairs young professionals and college students with experienced mentors and provides the foundation for an effective and valuable mentoring relationship, as well as guided group mentoring sessions designed to help participants achieve their highest professional and personal goals.

MAPP is a 1.5-month long program with four one-on-one mentoring meetings and three group mentoring sessions, which help participants build essential skills such as networking, career planning, and effective communication. The MAPP Handbook, provided to each mentor and mentee, serves as a guide to developing an effective and supportive mentoring relationship and contains valuable resources for participants.
