Washington State Mentors is pleased to welcome Dr. Michael J. Karcher, one of the nation's leading researchers in the field of mentoring. Michael J. Karcher, Ed.D., Ph.D., is a Professor of Counseling in the Education and Human Development at the University of Texas at San Antonio. His work focuses on school-based and cross-age peer mentoring as well as on adolescent connectedness and pair counseling. Karcher conducted one of the first large-scale school-based mentoring studies, the Study of Mentoring in the Learning Environment (SMILE, 2003-2006)(www.utsasmile.org), which focused on the effects of adult-with-youth mentoring for Latino youth. His research has prompted the development of cutting edge mentor training and match closure practices.
