Being a peer advocate is hard work! Especially when caring for your healing and supporting young people's recovery. This line of work requires access to outlets that promote self-care, normalcy, and human connection. Ramel operates a peer mentoring program for 'at-risk' youth throughout NYC. This year, he has mentored over 83 young people and helped more than half of those young people with concrete goal attainment, such as housing, employment, and educational support. Most of the youth mentored love to play video games but do not have access to gaming systems at home due to societal constructs of poverty. Ramel's wish is not for himself but selflessly for the youth he mentors. His holiday wish is for an Xbox gaming system at the family center where he operates his mentoring services. Ramel can use the gaming equipment to deepen his engagement with youth, especially those who struggle with vulnerability, comfort, and self-expression. When youth actively engage in an activity that reduces stress and increases comfort, they are more likely to absorb the mentoring supports and perspectives.
