about
our project
The Winning From Within Mentor Project is a structured, trauma-informed mentoring initiative designed to support youth ages 12–18 while also developing strong, purpose-driven mentors.
Created by Divine by Design Mentoring Co., this program focuses on building meaningful relationships, confidence, and leadership through a guided, multi-phase experience. Each phase is designed to help participants grow through trust-building, goal setting, consistent engagement, and personal reflection.
What makes this program unique is its dual focus — supporting both youth and mentors. While youth receive guidance, accountability, and encouragement, mentors are also equipped with tools, training, and support to lead with intention and impact.
This initiative is rooted in creating safe, supportive spaces where young people can grow, develop resilience, and step into their full potential, while also strengthening the community around them.
Participants can get involved as mentors, youth applicants, or community partners and sponsors, all working together to support the next generation.
