Modern Law and Reverse Mentoring

In my community, I have noticed ways to help.  One of the best ways to help your community is through volunteer work.  As a volunteer Associate for the ACFE in understand the importance of the people.  I am sworn to protect them from white collar crime and fraud because of my membership ethics requirements.  Thus, it is very rewarding to volunteer.  I cam across the concept of reverse mentoring not to long ago, which is pairing older employees with younger employees in it’s simplest form.  Although this mentoring primarily deals with trends, technology and social processes I think it can be used in volunteer work as well.  I have thought about the many different ways I can reverse mentor in my community as a volunteer Associate for the ACFE and found some delightful avenues.  One of them that is super cool is assisting the Justice Department with social media processes through technology in the time of modern laws.  One example that is beginning to unfold is the popularity of recreational consumption of cannabis in our country. The young are certainly adept at social media processes with technology and older generations trying to grasp the movement can have a blast on social media with the youth who can use wisdom coming down the ladder for thier future of safe and fun recreational use of cannabis.  I think by exercising this method that other ways to assist with reverse mentoring as a volunteer will become apparent to us all and we should implement them for the best benefits of our community!!
