The mission statement of University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's (UWEC) Peer Haven-LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) Mentorship Program is "To help students develop a positive LGBTQ identity while successfully adapting to life at UW-Eau Claire." While broad-based research on mentorship exists in relevant literature (e.g., (Durlack, 2011; Russell & Horne,
2009; Knox, Schlosser, Pruitt, & Hill, 2006), previous research on mentorship programs has not been specifically linked to details about the effectiveness of LGBTQ mentorship programs in specific or LGBTQ mentorship programs on university campuses. The purpose of this study was to more fully understand what an effective LGBTQ-specific mentor program at a university should consist of.
