I have been matched to a young mom for just a couple of weeks. I’m excited to get to know her and her son. We have plans to get together to make some freezer meals to make mealtime a little less stressful.

I chose to mentor because I hope that I can share from what I’ve learned in raising my kids. When I was a young mom, I wished I had someone to bounce stuff off of, so maybe I can help her in this way. I have saved all the resources that our Mentor Coordinator has shared into a file. So, when the young mom mentions a need, I go to that file to forward those agencies to her. If I run into an instance where I don’t have any idea, I go directly back to Leslie for advice/more resources/help!!
