Empower Change: Become a Mentor Today

Join MyStruggle’s mentorship program and make a lasting impact on someone’s life. As a mentor, you’ll provide guidance, support, and encouragement to individuals overcoming challenges like homelessness, addiction, and incarceration. Share your experiences, inspire hope, and help build a brighter future—one relationship at a time.

What in the mentorship program

At MyStruggle, we believe that true transformation happens when individuals connect with mentors who understand their journey firsthand. Our mentorship program is driven by people with lived experience—those who have faced and overcome challenges like homelessness, addiction, incarceration, trauma, and systemic barriers. This unique perspective allows mentors to build genuine connections and offer guidance that resonates on a deeper level.

As a mentor, your role can span across various areas to support individuals in reclaiming their lives and achieving their goals:

• Life Skills: Teach essential skills like budgeting, time management, and decision-making to help mentees navigate everyday challenges.
• Career Development: Provide resume building, interview preparation, and job search support to help mentees secure meaningful employment.
• Education Guidance: Support individuals pursuing their GED, trade certifications, or higher education by offering encouragement and study strategies.
• Recovery Support: Share insights from your recovery journey and help mentees develop resilience and coping mechanisms to stay on track.
• Reintegration Assistance: Guide individuals transitioning back into society with practical advice on housing, reconnecting with family, and establishing a support network.
• Emotional Support: Be a listening ear and a source of encouragement as mentees work through past trauma and rebuild their confidence.

Together, we can create a network of understanding, compassion, and actionable steps, ensuring every mentee has the tools and guidance they need to thrive. By sharing your story and experiences, you’ll not only empower others but also contribute to a movement that’s changing lives—one mentorship at a time.

It Takes All of Us

You don’t need lived experience to make a difference—everyone has something to offer. Whether it’s your time, skills, or simply your presence, your contribution as a mentor can have a lasting impact. It’s not just about guiding someone through challenges; it’s about showing them they’re not alone, that society cares, and that they have a future worth fighting for.

Making this societal shift isn’t the responsibility of a single group—it’s a collective effort. It will take all of us, from every walk of life, to bring people home, reintegrate them into our communities, and create a culture of second chances. By joining this movement, you’re helping to build a more compassionate and inclusive society, where everyone has the opportunity to rebuild their lives and thrive.



Together, we can be the bridge between struggle and success, offering hope to those who need it most and transforming communities one life at a time.
