Mentoring for individuals with autism and ADHD.

Hello Everyone,

My name is Brandon Adjoumani from Chicago Illinois, and I have ADHD and autism.

Before I was diagnosed at the age of 18, and got the help I needed, I was bullied, harassed, and worst of all judged. MY GOAL IN LIFE IS TO HELP OTHERS WITH HIGH FUNCTIONING AUTISM and ADHD NOT GO THROUGH THE SAME THING! The best way I can think of accomplishing this is through MENTORSHIP! I've been blessed to have a mentor in my life for the past 10 years! I want PAY IT FORWARD, and help. In my heart I truly believe I can make an impact, and become like a role-model for your children. Based on the help I've received, I became a college graduate, a self- published author, and an ambassador of compassion, as well as a mentor!

(It may go without saying, but my mentorship is ABSOLUTELY FREE! Again I'm just here to help and support.) Please let me know if you are interested in having a mentor for your children. I'm all too excited to start making those differences/impacts!

Thank you,

Brandon

Wow! That’s amazing. Good for you to have gone through what you have and risen above and accomplished so much. I’m curious what having a mentor can do or how it helps. I’d love to hear more regarding that.

Thank you so much for the kind message. I appreciate you. A mentor to me is like a big-brother or sister role model, that helps individuals grow to the best version of themselves. My mentor has been there for me for over 10 years, and continues to help me grow and guide me through life. Had it not been for his understanding, compassion, and patience, I would not be where I am. That is why I want to pay that gift forward.
