APPLY TO BE A MENTOR

Become a Mentor with The Healing of an Athlete Mentorship Program

Are you a retired athlete looking to make a meaningful impact on the next generation? The Healing of an Athlete Mentorship Program is a volunteer-based initiative designed to support athletes in their personal and professional growth. As a mentor, you will play a pivotal role in guiding athletes through their unique challenges, helping them identify goals, and supporting their overall well-being.

What Does the Role Entail?

Mentors engage with their assigned mentees on a weekly basis, providing guidance and support through text, email, or other communication platforms. You’ll hold a weekly Zoom or phone call with your mentee to review topics provided by the program, ensuring they stay on track with their growth and development.

As a mentor, you’ll also be expected to submit weekly progress updates to the program coordinator. These updates ensure clear communication, accountability, and the overall success of the mentorship relationship.

What Qualifies You to Be a Mentor?

We are seeking retired athletes who are passionate about giving back and committed to making a difference in the lives of others. The ideal mentor has:

• A background in sports and an understanding of the unique challenges athletes face, both during and after their careers
• Strong communication skills and a commitment to providing consistent and thoughtful support to your mentee
• The ability to listen, offer guidance, and empower athletes to achieve their goals
• A professional and respectful approach to building meaningful, supportive relationships
• A willingness to maintain confidentiality and respect the boundaries of the mentorship relationship

Why Become a Mentor?

While this is a volunteer position, mentoring offers valuable leadership experience and the chance to develop key skills such as communication, active listening, and coaching. You'll also build connections with the next generation of athletes and be part of a community that strives to make a lasting impact.

By joining The Healing of an Athlete mentorship program, you’re not just offering advice—you’re helping shape the future of athletes, guiding them through important personal and professional growth. Your commitment can help them build a fulfilling life, both during and after their athletic careers.
