Hey DCoP, As a part of the [Mentorship & Training Task Force](https://rcop.michaeljfox.org/t/mentorship-training-task-force/519) efforts, we have been brainstorming ways to make it easier to connect members of our community. One idea is a badge that tags you as being open to mentoring (i.e., serving as a mentor). Greg and Josh have been working behind the scenes, navigating the technical schema for making it happen. What do you think about having a tag for this, and what do you think of the tag below?
