The GEM Lab research team are hard at work this summer researching a Customized Mentorship Intervention Case Study. This research is being conducted in partnership with Dr. Micheal Shier, Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work, University of Toronto. The study will explore various aspects of improving mentorship outcomes for low-income adolescents.
