Mentors Who Look Like Us—Game Changer!

Did you know there’s a mentorship summit in Brooklyn where celebs and local leaders show NYC teens what’s possible—by actually looking like them? Emmy-winner Phil Taitt started Dream Reach Inspire to connect students with real-life role models. It’s not just about job titles; it’s about seeing yourself in the story. Kids are meeting judges, artists, even hostage negotiators, and leaving with new dreams (and sometimes, actual phone numbers). Proof that sometimes, the right mentor is all you need to change your whole path. #News #MentorshipMatters #Representation
