We have developed a mentorship program that is now ready for pilot testing, to assist new sponsors in Ontario. If you are looking for help in best practice, this will be the program for you.

Mentoring is a supportive partnership based on trust and respect, where experienced mentors share their knowledge and experience with those they mentor. A mentor is not expected to be an expert, a social worker, or settlement professional, but some one who has walked the walk, is a good problem-solver based on practical life experience. Being a mentor means leading the way to best practice providing insight learned through his/her own lived sponsorship experience.
