Feminist Legal Mentorship Program, initiated in 2001, seeks to create a supportive link between female law students and a variety of women who are practising law or in an alternative legal career. Students can look through an array of biographies from our mentors within the legal community and chose an individual who has similar interests or career goals. Mentors have varied careers in areas such as tax law, human rights law, administrative law, family law, commercial law and legal ethics. These women also came from a variety of situations including some of Vancouver's largest firms, government positions, sole practices, and alternative careers.

The program has received positive feedback from our students who say they enjoy the experience of learning more about the practice of law and engaging with legal professionals on a personal level.

If you are interested in signing up as a mentor or mentoree or would like more information about the program, please contact CFLS at 604-822-6523, or e-mail cfls@law.ubc.ca.
