<strong>What are Mentoring Circles?</strong><br>
A Mentoring Circle consists of 3-5 women with a specific
background who are committed to meeting monthly to support
one another with advice, encouragement, and
information. Each circle will be coordinated and aided by
at least one experienced mentor and one connector. <strong>For
