PROGRAM ELEMENTS

Program elements include weekly in-school group meetings, skill building classes every other weekend, community service projects, recreational activities, and an annual weekend retreat.

​

During the weekly group meetings at the schools, the young men can expect mentors will serve as role models who:

• Provide an environment where they feel supported, listened to, and valued.

• Demonstrate integrity, accountability, compassion, and respect.

• Allow them to speak their truth and encourage them to take responsibility for their choices.

• A setting where they realize they are not alone in their struggles and there are others who deal with similar challenges.

• The weekly meetings combine leadership opportunities, peer mentoring, and self-esteem building exercises.

• All meetings are facilitated by one or more Stronger Sons mentors
