Making An Impact

"My son participated in yesterday's workshop and once home, told me all about empathy, consent, and stereotypes."

— Middle School Parent

Our Approach to Change

We believe it is not the boys but rather the culture in which they live and grow that is in need of repair. While holding boys and men to a higher degree of individual accountability, we also put an appropriate level of focus on the environment—families, schools, community organizations, and peer culture—as the key agents of change in the lives of boys.
