What We do
We are a non-profit organization that strengthens men. We help men connect with themselves and others to lead more successful, fulfilling lives. We aim to support as many men as we can over the next five years. We are building a safe space where every man's story matters. As a 501c(3), we invest profits and donations directly into operational costs, programming, and the technology required to inspire and strengthen the lives of men, their families, and communities.
Our Vision & Scope
We are a resource hub for men who are navigating the various phases of life and manhood. We advocate, educate, coach and empower men on how to redefine their narratives by taking back their power to chose whom they desire to be. We provide the space and roadmap for them to reclaim their authentic manhood and masculinity while providing resources that enable them to become whole contributors to their families and communities.
our areas of focus
Fathers
We have developed a series of resources, products, and services as a result of research that highlights the importance of the role the father plays in ensuring the success of their child(ren) and strengthening the community.
Underrepresented Student Groups
We provide culturally sensitive mentorship, advisement, and tutoring services for male students. Through our ARROW mentorship initiative, we are committed to eradicating boundaries to success.
Survivors of Sexual Violence
We are committed to creating and networking with other local organizations with resources to assist us in creating safe spaces that help us combat the negative effects of unhealed sexual trauma in male victims.
Returning Citizens
We believe every human being deserves a second chance! Through our programming, we reduce recidivism rates among men of color. Our goal is to restore hope through love, support, training, and access to all that's needed to create a better future for themselves and their community.
