Bridging the Gap Mentoring

Bridging the Gap is a mentoring program run by Hopewell to support individuals who are struggling with an eating disorder. The program involves the mento and mentee getting together on a biweekly basis over a six-month period. The objectives of the program are to pair mentees with mentors who know what it's like to live with an eating disorder, provide individuals with a safe place to explore who they are outside of their eating disorder, and eliminate some of the stress associated with relationships and school/work by individual's focus to the things in their life that are going well.

We are currently looking for mentors who:

• are between the ages of 20 and 35
• have recovered from an eating disorder for a minimum of 2 years
• want to be a role model for someone that is struggling with an eating disorder

To apply to be a mentor, please contact Jamie at 613-241-3428 or e-mail info@hopewell.ca.
