DETAILS
The CREW Atlanta Mentoring Program is a year-long experience designed to foster meaningful professional connections between mentors and protégés, known as CREW Mates. Pairs will meet independently throughout the year with guidance and support from program leaders and will participate in quarterly in-person events. Participants are expected to take an active role in the experience, and a formal commitment letter will be required before the program begins.
CREW members who participate as mentors may do so at no cost. For those participating as protégés, the program fee is $100 for CREW members and $300 for non-members.
