Each One, Reach One

Mentorship

Ask what you're stuck on. Or offer what you carry.

MEND is built on women lifting women. Some questions need one good answer from someone who has been there. Others need someone to walk alongside you for a while. Tell us what you need and we will read it ourselves, then either come back to you directly or introduce you to a woman who can help.

We read every message and reply within 3 business days. We never share what you write with anyone else unless you tell us we can.

The MEND Community

Each one, reach one.

Women lifting women, hand in hand

I need support

Ask a MEND sister

Bring the question you actually have. It can be one thing you need answered, or something bigger you would rather not carry alone.

What kind of help are you looking for?

Please leave out sensitive details such as health, housing, or recovery information. Say only that it relates to those things and we will continue the conversation privately.

This isn't a crisis service and isn't monitored around the clock. If you are in danger or thinking about harming yourself, please call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or call 911.

I want to mentor

Offer what you carry

You don't need a title or a programme. If you know something another woman is trying to work out, that counts. We hold your details privately and come to you only when a request matches what you offer.

What could you help with?

Mentors support, they don't treat. We'll never ask you to handle a medical or crisis situation, and we'll talk you through what an introduction involves before we make one.

Many women arrive with something to ask and something to offer at once. If that's you, use both forms: being mentored and mentoring are the same road, walked in different directions.

See our Privacy Policy for how we handle what you send us.
