My Team
Medical Support
Location Served: USA
MyTEAM provides confidential emotional and peer-based support for Jewish girls and women living with chronic illness. The organization focuses on reducing isolation and helping participants navigate the emotional and social challenges that often accompany long-term medical conditions. Support is structured to be ongoing rather than crisis-based, emphasizing consistency and relationship-building.
A core component of MyTEAM’s work is individualized matching. Participants are paired in one-on-one mentorships or peer-support relationships with others who share similar health experiences. These connections are designed to provide understanding, validation, and practical emotional support from someone who can relate firsthand to living with chronic illness.
In addition to personal pairings, the organization offers daily interactive email programs that help participants remain connected and engaged. MyTEAM also hosts monthly teleconferences that create a group setting for discussion, shared experiences, and guided support. Periodic events further strengthen community ties and provide opportunities for in-person or collective connection.
MyTEAM also engages in awareness and education efforts within the Jewish community, with the goal of increasing understanding of chronic illness and addressing stigma around invisible or misunderstood conditions. These initiatives are intended to foster a more supportive and inclusive environment for those managing ongoing health challenges.
