ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
Museum of Science (Boston) is also set up for near-peer mentoring in the
early childhood exhibit. Teens who start as volunteers "move up" to
internships in which they mentor younger/newer teens - still requires lots
of staff supervision/back up.
