Real People. Real Change. Real Impact.

Mind Kind proudly serves as a Credible Messenger Provider under the guidance of the District of Columbia’s Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services (DYRS). Through this powerful initiative, we connect youth and young adults with mentors who have lived experience and deep ties to the communities they serve. These Credible Messengers are individuals who have overcome similar challenges and are uniquely positioned to build trust, offer guidance, and inspire transformation.

Our Credible Messengers work side by side with participants to encourage personal growth, accountability, and resilience. Whether through one-on-one mentoring, group sessions, or community-based activities, they empower youth to make positive choices, set meaningful goals, and navigate life's challenges with confidence and support.

This initiative is more than a program—it’s a movement to heal communities, reduce recidivism, and build future leaders.
