The FRPA Young Professionals Workgroup prioritizes the relationship between more experience professional and those newer to the field. Creating and cultivating relationships with those further along in their careers help young/new professionals grow. FRPA PODS are intended to be a way to link these two groups for the outcome of connection, mentorship, fellowship, and guidance. Each POD is a small group and consists of one or two leaders.
