The U of A LGBTQ-plus Faculty/Staff-Student Mentoring Program is pleased to announce it is accepting applications from LGBTQ-plus faculty and staff who wish to be mentors for LGBTQ-plus students as well as from LGBTQ-plus students who wish to participate as mentees.

Graduate students can be either mentors or mentees, depending on their needs and experiences.

If you are interested in being a mentor or mentee please complete the application survey at LGBTQ-plus Mentoring Program 2019/2020 (New and returning applicants need to complete the survey).
