Resident Mentors Needed

The Canadian Association of Physicians with Disabilities (CAPD) is currently seeking resident mentors for a peer mentorship program for disabled learners in medicine. The objective is to connect Canadian medical students with more senior medical trainees (medical students or residents) who have shared experiences of disability, chronic illness (physical or mental), neurodivergence, and/or require academic accommodations. If you identify as a learner with a disability and would like to provide mentorship and support through this program, sign up here. Feel free to reach out to Jordana Waserman at jordanaw@student.ubc.ca or Shira Gertsman at shira.gertsman@medportal.ca if you have any questions, comments or feedback.
