THE PROGRAM
The program enrolls young men entering fourth grade, understanding that this is a critical time for boys. At this age the demographics of African American males are at greater risk for introduction to drugs, sexual activity, dangerous-unhealthy habits and poor lifestyles choices.
Our program will offer intrusive mentoring, spiritual guidance, academic support, and athletic immersion to interrupt the theme pervading inner city male youth in our Chicago commuities. We will walk each enrollee from adolescence to adulthood using a whole man mentorship model including social, psychological, spiritual, and physical development practices.
The goal is to provide young men with an opportunity to discover their purpose and to access their gifts by effectively changing thought patterns and thereby affecting behaviors. By developing personal goals, connecting with a mentor, and changing their mindsets, boys entering and graduating the program will be able to exercise their gifts to make positive community changes.

We are adults longer than we our children. Therefore we should spend more time teaching our male youth how to become great adults rather than good children.
