Linda
Hi, I’m Linda, originally from Brooklyn NY, now residing in Chapel Hill, NC. My past and how I live now is a powerful example that people can change. I became a mentor to be a part of the solution.
Scottso
My name is Edward. I’m from Brooklyn New York. I became a mentor after seeing so many young guys come through the prison system. It made me want to make a difference in our communities.

Joe
I am originally from Maryland and lived in South Florida for seven years before moving to Asheville, NC, where I attended The University of North Carolina at Asheville, studying Neuropsychology. After graduating, I moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, to attend graduate school.
I’ve chosen to help others struggling with various forms of Mental Health Disorders, including but not limited to Substance Use Disorder (SUD), and to use my personal life experiences to help benefit others going through similar struggles as my own.
In my free time I enjoy volunteering and spending time outside. I like to hike, bike, and rock climb when I can find the time to get to the mountains.
