You raised them to value truth. You taught them to think logically. You encouraged them to carefully evaluate. So why are they disagreeing with you now? Every teenager goes through a natural process over several years.

As your child grows, matures, and begins to experience life on a broader plain than the family circle, they will develop their own independent ideas.

Embrace their independence and coming into their own while stepping in guide them when necessary.

Message from our CEO:

Good afternoon,

I am writing to share an update regarding our programming schedule for the upcoming season. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have decided to forego our traditional 8-week fall mentoring program that usually takes place from October through February. We feel it is best to use this time to regroup, strategize, and enhance our framework so we can return even stronger in the new year.

While our 8-week cohort will not take place, we will remain active in the community. We plan to continue our engagement via workshops and community service events. Additionally, our mentors will remain fully available to support our current young men during this period.

We are deeply grateful to our community partners, supporters, and friends for your continued alignment with our mission. Thank you for your ongoing support as we prepare for a strong return.

In service to youth,

Jermaine N. Johnson

Where are they now? ❤️💪🏾

When Clarence graduated high school in 2024, he had already made a decision about his future: he wanted to become a Marine.

He didn’t just talk about it. He stayed committed to the plan, remained focused, and followed through. Now, that goal has become a reality. Clarence has officially enlisted as a United States Marine. 🫡

This is what we mean when we talk about planting seeds, building character, and preparing young men to pursue their goals with purpose and discipline. We are extremely proud of him and the young man he continues to become. His journey is just beginning, and we can’t wait to see where it takes him.

As Dr. Carter G. Woodson said, “The effort must result in making a man think and do for himself.”

That’s the mission. That’s the result.

🎓 GIVE IT UP FOR OUR SENIOR GRADUATE, Jayden! 🎓🎉

Today, our village celebrates a huge accomplishment! One of our outstanding young men has officially graduated from high school, and we couldn’t be more proud! 🙌🏾

This achievement is more than a diploma, it’s a testament to hard work, commitment, and the power of village work. When young people are supported, encouraged, and surrounded by people who believe in them, amazing things happen.

When our young Black boys graduate it should make the community proud. This is just the beginning, and your future is full of possibilities! 🚀✨

Drop a 🎓👏🏾 in the comments and help us celebrate this incredible young man!
