Local women step forward to help others with new careers IT CAN be hard enough eaming a living, much less landing your dream job. But a new mentoring group in Terrace could help change that for _women hoping to find someone to help show them the way. Called Women As Mentors, or WAM, the group is made up of vo- lunteers who are employed in a range of different fields. They want to show cther women -how they did it.

Cormano grew up in Terrace. “I didn’t know there was such a thing as a career,” Cormano recalls. “I went to school, got married and had children.” She wants women to know that retail can be a career — not just something to do until something else comes along. ' Environmental geologist Erin O’Brien wants to mentor women who are interested in working in physical sciences or engineering. She had just one female professor while at university. “It’s been my experience that there aren’t that many female role models out there in the sciences,” O’Brien says. “We need more.” ‘ Nurse Alice Moszczynski says mentoring is more than just sharing knowledge. It’s about inspiring someone and giving them more con- fidence. Group founder Melissa Munn, a college instructor, says she wishes she had access to women like the WAM members when she was young. “I could have saved myself soi much aggravation and time,” she says. Women who are interested in being mentored must apply. Write to . mentors@monarch.net or phone Terri at 635-8504. While young women are the primary target of the project, adult women who are re-entering the workforce - or who are considering a career change — are also welcome.
