Ellevate LA Mentorship Program Match Survey

Welcome to the Ellevate LA Mentorship Program! This survey will act as the foundation of your experience across the next six months. The information you provide here will determine the mentee or mentor you are matched with. We recommend you complete this survey with detail, honesty and thoughtfulness to ensure Ellevate LA is able to secure the best possible match for you. The survey will close without exception on May 31 and you will receive your match in June 2026. For this round, orientation sessions will take place in July and pairs will meet from July 2026 until December 2026.
