Members of North Central’s JEWEL program recently gathered for a celebration luncheon honoring mentors, scholars, and graduates while welcoming a new cohort for Fall 2026.
JEWEL — the Joint Endeavor for Women in Education and Leadership program — is a partnership between NCMC and Women’s Resource Center of Northern Michigan that supports academic success, leadership development, and mentorship opportunities.
Since launching, the program has supported 27 scholars, including 13 graduates and transfer students. Ten scholars will continue in the program next year, and 10 new scholars will join this fall.
