Mentorship Groups
To support the primary mentor/mentee model, the Department is further supporting career development and wellness through group communities.
- All faculty (junior or senior) are welcome to register for groups on a rolling basis
- Group members can attend as many / as few sessions as their availability allows
- The intention for the mentorship groups is that they self-evolve and identify their own desired group structure, areas of interest and needs

This mentorship group is focused on the needs of faculty who identify as racialized women.

Individuals who identify as racialized women are welcomed and encouraged to attend both the larger women's mentorship group, and this smaller group, if interested.
Next session: September 30, 2024 (12:00pm- 1:00pm)
