GNC Speakers Bank

New immigrants, young and old, need leaders, counselors, role models, and mentoring partners when they come to the United States. Demand for this type of support is high from all age groups. The older generation requires assistance and guidance in their new ways of life. The younger generation and students are looking for people who understand the unique problems of youth. Young people especially need to know how to interact confidently in their new surroundings.

The GNC Speakers Bank includes the names, contact information, and fields of specialty for lecturers, counselors, mentoring partners, and business consultants who can help provide guidance to recent immigrants. GNC makes this information available at the GNF Web site so that community members can contact speakers directly for more details about speaking engagements or appointments.

GNF/GNC is not responsible for the opinions or activities of any individuals involved with the GNC Speakers Bank. Each speaker’s personal and qualifying information are based on the information those individuals provide to GNC.

Speaker candidates: Please click contact and fill out the form, sending it to GNC with your most recent biographical information and a brief introduction to your field of specialty.
