Provide Mental Health Coaching to Youth over Text Message: Volunteer with MindRight
Do you want to advance access to mental health support, educational equity, and social justice? Join us at MindRight in our fight to make trauma healing services accessible to all youth. We’re a nonprofit on a mission to empower youth of color to heal from trauma from systemic oppression. We provide personalized mental health coaching over text message to teens.
As a coach, you become someone our students can count on. You implement our Empathize-Normalize-Stabilize coaching framework to help youth build positive coping skills for managing traumatic stress. You do not need a license or clinical background to be a coach. We take coaches through 15 hours of robust training on our coaching model. Our volunteers are bridging the opportunity gap to make mental health support accessible to all youth. Your role is at the core of what we do.
