Ascenso Monarca 2026 – Rise, Lead, Inspire

At Sueño Monarca, we believe your journey shouldn't be traveled alone. Ascenso Monarca is a community where immigrant youth and young professionals (ages 18–26) connect with mentors who have actually "been there." Whether you want to master a trade, start a business, or navigate university life, we provide the network to help you climb. Join our 2026 founding cohort and turn your goals into a reality.

Mentee Frequently Asked Questions

  • We primarily serve young people aged 18–24. However, we welcome younger students who are eager to start their career journey early!

  • Safety is our priority. Anyone under the age of 18 must be supervised by an adult or legal guardian at all times during mentorship sessions and program activities.

  • Nothing. The Ascenso Monarca program is free for mentees.

  • We ask for a 10-12 week commitment. This includes one meeting per week with your mentor (virtually or in person), attending one Sueño Monarca event, and working toward a specific goal like a résumé or a job application.

  • No! While our formal cohort runs for 10-12 weeks, we understand that some goals are specific and immediate. If you only need help with a one-time task—such as a resume review, building your LinkedIn profile, or practicing for a specific interview—you can request One-Time Support.

  • The Mentor Program is a relationship-based journey where you and your mentor work through a full curriculum to build your career foundation. One-Time Support is a "power session" focused solely on completing one specific professional task.

  • Absolutely. Many of our participants start with a resume review and realize they would benefit from the full 10-12 week guidance. You are welcome to apply for the full cohort during our next recruitment cycle.
