The initiative will match students with a suitable mentor in a student’s field of studies. Influence Mentoring Society Chair Colby Delorme says the aim is to fill the education and employment gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.
“Eliminating these gaps and ultimately increasing Indigenous representation in the private sector, including in management and executive positions, should be a shared journey,” Delorme said in a news release.
“This speaks not only to having the resources available to support Indigenous youth, but also is a signal of true reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.”
Delorme said the initiative is very much guided by The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada’s Calls to Action, which address the need to eliminate the educational and employment gaps between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.
