Dear Members of the Minnesota Chapter of the Federal Bar Association:
The MN-FBA Mentorship Committee is excited to share the recent launch of the Federal Bar Association’s Lift Up Leaders Mentorship Program, which was designed under the leadership of FBA-National D&I Chair and FBA-MN Past-President Tara Norgard. The Lift Up Leaders program provides FBA members with a unique opportunity to make a personal difference in their professional community and to gain new perspectives on the legal environment. Participating mentors can provide advice, insight, and guidance to mentees concerning careers, internships or clerkships, leadership opportunities, and professional development. Mentees are afforded a confidential resource to talk through career decisions and professional development. The program is designed for the mentorship pair to build a mutually beneficial and positive relationship.
We hope that you will join us in signing up to be a mentor—and to encourage others to sign up to be mentors and mentees. To learn more about the mentorship program, and to sign up, please select here. The deadline to enroll is February 11, 2022.
Sincerely,
Mentorship Committee Co-Chairs Kristen Martilla and Chelsea Walcker
