Be a part of something special! 

During the first year of the Student Leader Fellowship Program (SLFP), all student fellows are assigned a mentor. The mentors are community leaders who act as role models, advisers, teachers, and friends. Over 1,000 members of the community have served as mentors — many have served more than once.

This is a leadership/community mentoring experience. Although there may be some educational benefits that emerge if you are matched with someone interested in your career field, this is viewed as a bonus. What we hope that student fellows gain from the SLFP’s mentoring component is an understanding and appreciation of leadership at the community level.

We currently recruiting for the 2026-2027 academic year.  If you are interested in being a mentor for the upcoming year, please complete this 2026 Mentor Profile Form
