There are almost 400,000 youth in the foster care system, with over 15,000 aging out of the system each year without experiencing permanency with a family.

Every young person deserves a caring, supportive adult in their corner, and mentoring relationships can help fill this void for foster youth. 💙

Michael’s advice on finding a mentor?

Get one as fast as you can.

In this final feature, he shares how mentorship can help you learn from someone else’s experience, gain perspective, and maybe even “skip levels” along the way.

We’re so grateful to have featured Michael this month. His story is a reminder that every young person’s journey is different, and that listening to youth voices helps us better understand the kind of support, connection, and guidance they need most.

Thank you, Michael, for sharing your story with us. More voices, more stories, and more heartbeats to come!

🧠 This , we invite you take a deep breath.

Start by checking in on yourself and asking what YOU need.

When you’ve taken care of your needs, consider checking in on the young people in your life with something as simple as a text saying, ‘Thinking of you today’. 💙

Even small acts make a big difference. Explore our resources to support both young people and yourself: https://bit.ly/3nSkA7m
