The One on One mentorship program is dedicated to empower pregnant and parenting teen moms, particularly those from low-income and Black/Latinx communities in Chicago and the surrounding south suburbs. Through mentorship and essential resources, the program helps these young women navigate the challenges of parenthood while ensuring they have the support needed to complete their education and transition into responsible adulthood.

Our volunteer mentors are professionals from the community who receive training to provide individualized support to our mentees. Each mentee also receives a monthly $100 gift card, to address immediate needs such as diapers, baby wipes, personal hygiene items and food, making a significant difference in the lives of the participants.
