WHY

Thrive was created in Boston by a group of women to address a growing need for support of young women with disabilities as they transition into adulthood. 

In addition Google Hangout chats, Thrive encourages young women to interact with one another through their other active social media outlets, book club, and mentoring.

No matter their location, women can engage in discussion and support through Thrive's diverse, yet intimate connections. Digital mentor interaction is coordinated through email, video-chat and phone.
