GRIT Powered is mentorship for teens with ADHD, Autism, and executive functioning challenges.
We provide near-peer mentorship to build agency, independence and resilience.
You have tried therapy, school accommodations, support groups, and coaching, yet your child still feels stuck, frustrated and disconnected.
Grit Powered bridges the gap. Mentorship builds trust.
Trust creates influence. Influence empowers teens to become confident, resilient and independent.
We do not replace existing supports, we unlock their impact by giving your teen someone they naturally relate to.

“I used to get really stressed about homework because I didn’t know where to start. My mentor showed me how to break big assignments into smaller steps. Now I feel way less overwhelmed, and I actually get things done on time.”

“I didn’t think I was a ‘leader,’ but my mentor showed me that leadership can just mean listening to others and helping the group. Now I feel more confident when working on group projects.”

“I get really anxious about speaking in front of people. My mentor gave me strategies to calm down and practice. Last month, I presented in English class and actually felt confident. That was a huge win for me.”

“At first, I didn’t see the point of talking about goals. But when I started writing them down with my mentor, I realized I was actually making progress. It feels good to check things off and know I’m moving forward.”
