WORTH Association launched a mentorship program in January, 2020. A first for our industry, the program paired over 40 women from Whistler, Victoria and Vancouver. Our matches came with different backgrounds and experiences, but the one thing they all share in common is their love of the industry.

Over six months, the pairs connected in person, by phone, through text or virtually. With the guidance from their mentors, we saw women ask for pay increases, earn promotions, relocate and return to school. We felt especially grateful to our mentors who supported their proteges through the disruption caused by the pandemic.
