Everyone needs someone in their corner. Someone who listens. Someone who believes in you. Someone who reminds you of your strengths when life gets tough. Young people going through the Journey Back to Awesome programme are offered ongoing support from a trained mentor throughout the programme and beyond.
It's about building trust, growing confidence, working towards goals and knowing there's someone alongside you for the journey.
YOUR MENTAL HEALTH TIP: Find your person.
Think of someone you trust. Make time for a catch-up, share what's on your mind or ask for a little perspective. And if someone reaches out to you? Make time to listen. You don't need all the answers to make someone feel they belong. Connection can change the way we see ourselves and what's possible.
At Youth in Transition, we're helping young people find their way back to awesome - with support that lasts.
