Mentoring Programs
Through Easterseals Massachusetts mentoring programs, we strive to bring together people with disabilities to connect and learn from one another. Learn more about our two groups, THRIVE and B.A.D. (Brothers Against Discrimination).
Thrive | For Young Women with Disabilities
Thrive is a mentoring program for women with disabilities or anyone that feels they would benefit from this community ages 14 and up. Through both group and one-to-one match relationships, each participant will have the opportunity to develop the skills of self-empowerment and to promote personal achievement and self-identity within a community of other women with disabilities. Contact us for more information.
