BREAKING BARRIERS
About
Breaking Barriers is more than just a disability mentorship program; it's a community of individuals who support and uplift each other. We believe that by matching individuals based on disability, specific needs, and experiences, we can create meaningful connections that last a lifetime. Our mentors are passionate about helping others overcome obstacles and achieve their goals, and our mentees have the opportunity to engage in personal growth and development.
Through this experience, you will gain valuable insights into:
-
Navigating the academic or professional landscape with a disability
-
Identifying and overcoming barriers to success
-
Developing strategies for self-advocacy and empowerment
Mission
To build a support system amongst individuals with disabilities to empower them to achieve their full potential through personalized mentorship, a supportive community, and a commitment to inclusion.
Vision
We believe in matching individuals with mentors who share similar experiences and can provide tailored guidance and support. We cultivate a supportive and inclusive community where individuals with disabilities can connect with others, share experiences, and learn from one another.
