OvercomHER Mentoring

Empowering Girls to Heal, Lead, and Overcome

OvercomHER Mentoring is a healing-centered mentorship program through Mothers Impacting Lives Every day designed to support and empower at-risk BIPOC girls and young women as they navigate life’s challenges and discover their strength, voice, and purpose.

Many of the girls we serve face barriers such as trauma, low self-esteem, family instability, community violence, peer pressure, mental health struggles, bullying, and lack of positive support systems. OvercomHER was created to provide a safe and empowering space where girls can be seen, heard, supported, and reminded of their worth.

Through mentorship, leadership development, healing-centered activities, workshops, and sisterhood, participants build confidence, emotional resilience, healthy relationships, and life skills that help them grow into empowered young women and future leaders.

Our mentors lead with compassion, authenticity, accountability, and lived experience to help participants understand that their past does not define their future.

Our Belief

Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders

We believe every girl deserves the opportunity to overcome obstacles, discover her power, and become the author of her own story.
