    Silver Lining Mentoring: Become an e-Mentor (fully virtual!) to someone with Foster Care Experience!

    Life after foster care can feel overwhelming, so Silver Lining Mentoring (SLM) created the e-Mentoring program for young adults (18-26) with foster care experience across Massachusetts and beyond. This virtual program offers flexible, goal-focused mentorships through chat and video, supporting mentees in building life skills, accessing resources, and feeling connected.

    Mentors commit to about 4 hours per month of virtual connections for 1 year, with training and support from SLM staff. Mentors serve as a reliable, caring addition to mentee's support networks. As a mentor, you will get connected with an amazing young adult who you will have the opportunity to help navigate adulthood and all its joys and challenges.
