PROGRAM INFORMATION
Step Up's Professional Mentorship Program rewards members who have devoted their time, resources and talents to helping women and girls in our community, pairing them with a senior-level professional for a six-month mentorship period focused on advancing the mentee's career goals. Mentors and mentees communicate at least once each month, typically for an hour, in-person or over the phone.

Mentors are pre-selected from our Board of Directors, Luminary Circle donors, professional development speakers, and other senior-level women supporters in the New York community. Participating mentors will be announced before the required goal-setting workshop for mentee applicants.

  • Be an active Step Up member at the Influencer level ($125) or above
