Equity Minded Mentorship: Making Mentorship Matter

Equity-minded mentorship asks a different question than traditional mentoring. Instead of asking, 'How can I help you be more like me?', it shifts to, 'How can this relationship interrupt inequities and expand what’s possible for both of us—and for our organization?' This perspective is especially vital in community leadership within non-profits and associations, where we constantly discuss inclusion and representation. This shift in mentorship programs is long overdue.
