Part of Big Brothers Big Sisters International, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee is a mentoring organization dedicated to empowering youth aged 6 to 23 by creating professionally supported, one-to-one mentoring relationships between adult volunteers ("bigs") and young people ("littles"). The company is based in Nashville, TN. The organization offers a variety of flexible mentoring programs—including community-based, site-based at schools, sports-focused, e-mentoring for high school students, and a college advancement program—to help youth build confidence, social skills, and achieve their potential. The enrollment process for mentors and mentees involves thorough screening, training, and careful matching based on shared interests and values, supported by ongoing guidance. The organization emphasizes strong family and community connections, measuring impact through youth development and academic progress. Additional initiatives include a referral program to grow the mentor network and an ambassador program that engages alumni volunteers in outreach and recruitment efforts. Caryle Carroll has been the CEO of the company since 2013.
