Family Friend/Mommy Mentor
Providing Lasting Unconditional Support
Mommy Mentors encourage and support families in crisis and host families.
What is a Mommy Mentor?
Mommy Mentors provide guidance and support to new parents as they navigate the challenges of early parenting. The program fosters a nurturing community offering practical guidance with emotional support by pairing a Family Friend/Mommy Mentor with a new parent. This inclusive approach ensures parents feel strengthened and confident in their parenting journey.
Feedback from a supported MOM:
In Jessica’s words, “The mentor program helped fill a void that I have been missing with having someone, like a family member, truly care for me and want to see me succeed. I am excited to finish up my schooling and become a Domestic Violence Advocate.”
Feedback from a MENTOR:
Jennifer shared, “I feel so blessed to be a part of the Mommy Mentor program, and to have connected with my Mama (Jessica) and her sons. She has become a sweet friend, and I feel honored to continue to be a part of her and her boy’s journey. If some of you feel pulled to join up with Safe Families, do it. It is such a blessing.”
Feedback from a supported MOM:
“I am a mom of 3…I am so grateful for my wonderful mommy mentor. I am trying to show my kids a healthy lifestyle and community and was struggling to find that, but now my family is experiencing healthy relationships.”
