Mentor Program

Disability:IN Minnesota would like to invite you to apply for our 2021 Career Connections Mentoring Program.

The Career Connections Mentoring Program is a 3-month mentoring experience connecting employers/professionals from Disability:IN Minnesota member companies to:

  • College/university students with disabilities
  • Recent graduates with disabilities or
  • Individuals with disabilities who have completed a specialized training/certification program

The mentoring program offers one-on-one relationships that will allow both mentors and mentees to share their insights, perspectives and experiences related to disability inclusion in the workplace. This results in a supportive mutually-beneficial relationship that provides the mentor with an enhanced knowledge of disability inclusion while driving career development and employment opportunities for the mentee.

Career Connections Mentoring Program Dates

The 2021 Mentoring Program will run from January 4, 2021 – April 9, 2021 and will require mentors and mentees to have contact twice per month either via phone or video conference. The estimated monthly time commitment is 4 to 6 hours.
