Mentoring
We are
here!

EEWG’s mentoring program aims in assisting Newcomers to the U.S. Newcomers often have great difficulty accessing existing services such as insurance benefits, education, employment and proper documentation. The Mentor will help the Mentee at boosting her self-confidence, and in strengthening their social relationships and be a support system throughout the on-boarding process.

Being new to the country, these women will likely face isolation, and loneliness in adapting to a new system and culture, especially if they don’t have a close family or a support system around them. This can cause a negative impact on the Newcomers well-being. The big issue is difficulty accessing existing services for various reasons such as language barriers, transportation and not having a guidance. Even though, there are very good services and resources for these women, they may not know how to gain access to the information. 

The role of the mentor plays an important part in reducing isolation, improving the quality of life of the mentees, improving self-esteem and self-confidence and in facilitating the access to services.

If you are interested in Mentoring a newcomer, lend a helping hand and dedicate your time to your community, we would love to hear from you.
