I am a mentor with the MentorMe program, a program that was started by Amanda Wherry at Children's Therapy Team in Fayetteville, AR. Through this program, I was paired with a mentee. You meet and hang out with your mentee for a year. My mentee, Porsha, is almost 13 years old. Each week, we hang out and get some social interaction with other people. Activities I've done with Porsha each week include going to get Ice Cream at Sweet Sccops, going to sonic, painting pumpkins, going early Christmas shopping, and on Sunday, we are exchanging Christmas gifts and going to look at the lights in the square.
I would recommend this opportunity to anyone! I promise there is always time to carve out an hour in your week. It can create the most beautiful friendships and make the world of a difference in someone's life.

This program was designed in partnership with Children's Therapy TEAM! In this program, I am paired with a young girl and we meet once a week for about 2 hours and just hang out and work on her social skills. Because of COVID-19, my mentee has had little to no social interaction, so when we hang out, we often bake, hang out with some of my friends, go grocery shopping together, and many other things!
