At The Circle of SistAhood, we are seeking dedicated mentors to provide one-on-one guidance, advocacy, and support for our teen girls. Mentorship involves regular check-ins, both virtual and occasional in-person, to foster meaningful connections. Through mentorship, we aim to enhance the mental, emotional, and physical stability of our teens while serving as advocates during their times of need. Joining as a mentor is a rewarding opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of young women in our community. More information can be discussed during an virutal meeting with our CEO.

Mission Statement
The Circle of SistAhood is a mentorship program designed to influence teenage girls (ages 12-17 years of age in breaking difficult barriers, creating safe spaces to grow, and producing visions for positive change. We are a resource that provides a supportive network for families, parent engagement, community education, skill and team building, peer social skills, community outreach, and overall increasing awareness by breaking the stigma for mental health. In addition, we are here to build community partnerships and give the youth within the community an accessible outlet resource. The Circle of Sistahood is dedication to primarily serve the socio-economically disadvantaged population that aligns perfectly with the needs identified in the community. With 10 teen girls currently enrolled with the plan to double this number within the next fiscal year, our impact is already significant and poised to grow.
Description
Mentoring can help youth as they go through challenging life transitions, including dealing with stressful changes at home or transitioning to adulthood. Close, healthy, supportive relationships between mentors and mentees that last for a significant portion of time (i.e., more than one year) are central to success. Without this, mentoring programs run the risk of harming young people who are paired with mentors ill-equipped to meet the mentees' needs.
The Circle of SistAhood's vision stemmed from the lack of many unavailable resources for teen girl's mentorship. Mental health is increasing, and many teens are left in the dark on how to navigate through life. This program is designed to not only help teens overcome life stressors, but to help their families as well. Our Core values are inspired by our willingness to heal minds and restore souls with individuals, families, and the communities.
The Circle of SistAhood, launched in October 2022, has made a significant impact on over 100 teenage girls and their families across Ellis, Tarrant, and Dallas Counties. Through various group sessions, mental health counseling groups, speaking engagements, and community events, the program aims to foster holistic development for teen girls, their families, and the wider community. Our goal is to double the the access to teens and their families through mentorship and community work for the next service year.
