- Description
-
We are a collective dedicated to supporting South Asian & Tamil Women, girls, and gender diverse communities by curating spaces for connection, growth, and learning. As a small grassroots community-led organization, our vision as a community collective of South Asian and Tamil women is to connect, learn, and build authentic relationships. At the heart of our organization's values is the preservation and engagement with South Asian and Tamil cultural knowledges. We see traditional and emerging South Asian and Tamil cultural traditions as essential to balanced well-being and mental health. Our programming and events showcase the value of the intergenerational connection between South Asian and Tamil sisters. We value oral tradition as a cultural asset in passing on knowledge between, among and across generations to support the navigation of family, education, career, health, and social spheres of life.

Mentorship Program Design & Development
We are currently in the process of growing our grassroots collective, and have rebranded from Womxn Offering Wisdom to the South Asian & Tamil Women's Collective. We would like a student to help us with developing a culturally responsive mentorship/career development program for young South Asian and Tamil women (ages 15 -25). We have received a small number of funds to develop this program over the year and launch it by spring 2022. We will ensure the student has a clear understanding of what these elements are for our organization, and be provided growth and development opportunities. We believe this project will involve: Source sponsors and design care/welcome packages for all program participants [I.e. outreach emails, products, etc.] Support with resource creation for program participants [mentorship program guides, onboarding, curriculum materials, etc.] Students will be provided access to organization information as required, including access to google folder and documents. The primary goal of implementing a mentorship/career development for young South Asian & Tamil women is to support during a time of uncertainty around career pathways/future of work and support overall well-being with a community care approach. We hope to gain an understanding of what components should be included and on implementation strategies.
