Peer Mentor
You're With Us is a statewide nonprofit in Massachusetts that serves young adults who are neurodivergent and who have developmental disabilities.
As a peer mentor, you will be paired with a specific participant of ours based on interests. Mentoring looks different depending on the participant, and can involve working on anything from communication skills to transportation and money management. Each participant has their own goals that they are working on.
Ultimately, the goal of peer mentoring is for individuals to be able to form a genuine friendship and for it to be an enjoyable experience for all involved. Mentors and mentees will often go out into community with one another, play games, or do art.
