2025 Mentorship Program

After a successful commencement of our Mentorship Program in 2024, we wish to start a new cycle in 2025 - this time with more mentor opportunities and connections for mentees! In 2024, we piloted our program with our mentor list consisting of our Board Members only, but this year's cycle we want to open it up to ALL members. We hope that this change will allow more connections between mentor and mentee throughout Canada.
