Become a Participant Mentee
At New Man Connection, getting involved is the first step toward becoming the best version of yourself. We offer a variety of ways for you to connect with our supportive community and begin your journey of growth and transformation.
What It Means to Be Involved
Becoming part of New Man Connection isn’t just about showing up—it’s about showing up for yourself. Being involved means committing to growth, embracing challenges, and learning what it means to be a stronger, more confident, and better man. It’s about stepping into a community after you’re back on your feet, from living in transitional housing where you’re supported, heard, and encouraged to become the best version of yourself—not just for you but for those who rely on you.
The journey starts with a single step. So get connected and discover what’s possible when you’re a mentee, committed, to learn and grow.

Please Donate to Our Work
Supporting New Man Connection (NMC) is a way we can change our communities together. We would like to encourage those who believe in what we are doing to help bring hope to those less fortunate in our communities. Many of us count our blessings daily, and give generously to various charities, and to people in need. It’s a wonderful thing. However, we often overlook another group who also has needs: Single parents. We work with single fathers that are raising children alone, or such as a homeless man who stumbles and needs a helping hand to get back up on his feet. There are many men who are struggling out there in a variety of different situations. Some are working through personal issues, some are dealing with financial problems, and many suffer from depression. Sometimes the stress of divorce, and/or loss of a job will cause men to turn to drugs, alcohol, and other self-destructive behavior. NMC helps men recognize and deal with life-altering challenges through our mentoring program.
