🚨 Only a few seats available for the Healthy Masculinity Training Institute (June 3–5, DC)

This isn’t a large conference.
It’s a small, interactive training designed for real skill-building.
Which means space is intentionally limited
If you’ve been considering it—this is your moment to commit.

April gave us many opportunities to engage in meaningful conversations around prevention, accountability, and creating safer communities.

During Sexual Assault Awareness Month, our Executive Director Neil Irvin participated in the DC SAFE Spring Luncheon alongside fellow panelists Dr. Dena Williams Hasan, MPH (StraightCircle Solutions), Dr. Roger A Mitchell Jr MD (National Medical Association), and Jayrick Hayes (Young Adult Dating & Relationship Coaching) for a discussion on shared responsibility in preventing violence against women and the importance of healthy masculinity in this work.

As proud members of the DC Coalition to End Sexual Violence(DCCESV), we were honored to join partners and community leaders working together to support the sustained impact of violence prevention efforts across our communities.

We are proud to reflect on Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM) as part of our ongoing commitment to primary prevention and community building. It is a privilege to serve as a member of the DC Coalition to end sexual violence working collectively to advance awareness, healing, and prevention.

This month, we joined the second annual SAAM panel hosted by the US Attorney’s Office and the Academy of Hope Adult Public Charter School, where our Executive Director Neil Irvin contributed to conversations on prevention, bystander empowerment, and addressing sexual violence as a men’s issue.

We also connected with community members at the resource fair, inspired by the students and ongoing community-driven work.

We continued the month at our SAAM Happy Hour at Hotel Zena, where we gathered with partners across the movement.

We are grateful to our fellow coalition members and stakeholders of the DC Coalition to End Sexual Violence for continuing this shared work to end sexual violence and strengthen communities.

Hello, Middle and High School Youth!

Ready to step into filmmaking but don’t know where to start?

The Men of Strength Club Inaugural Black Boy Film Festival is more than a showcase. It’s a gateway into storytelling, creativity, and community.

If you’re new to film or just curious about the process, check out these resources. It’s packed with tools, guidance, and inspiration to help beginners and aspiring creators take that first step behind (or in front of) the camera.

You don’t need fancy equipment or years of experience, just your voice, your vision, and the willingness to start.

Let’s build, learn, and create together.

Hello,

We’re down to the final 2 days of SAAM, and this is your last chance to access our SAAM-exclusive HMTI registration rate of just $400 per person. This limited-time offer is designed for professionals actively seeking high-impact, results-driven training—and seats are nearly gone.

If you’ve been looking for a meaningful opportunity to invest in your growth, expand your network, and gain practical, strength-based strategies you can apply immediately, this is it. The $400 SAAM rate expires 4-30-26. Don’t miss your window—secure your seat now before this opportunity closes.

Problem:
Doing this work can feel isolating.

You’re one of the only people in your organization pushing these conversations forward.

Solution:
You don’t have to do it alone.

HMTI brings together professionals from:
• Education
• Nonprofits
• Government
• Community programs

So you leave not just with tools but with a network.

That’s how this work scales.

In honor of the last two weeks of SAAM, HMTI registration will be $400 per person. This SAAM promotional price ends 4-30-26! Don't miss out on the opportunity to be in the room with a national network of professionals engaged around moving community forward with a strength-based approach.

Problem:
Too many trainings become a checkbox:
✔ Attend
✔ Sit through slides
✔ Move on
No real change.

Solution:
What if your training actually shifted culture?

HMTI is designed to:
• Challenge assumptions
• Build real skills
• Create lasting impact

Because this work is too important to be performative.
