MEN FOLKS

Men Folks defines mentoring as individual, personal relationships that are characterized by relevant and focused involvement conducted over a prolonged period of time between black youths and Men Folks members. The members provides consistent support, guidance and targeted activities as the youths grow and mature. Within the framework of this growth and maturity, it is anticipated that the youth will experience difficult and challenging situations that require mentoring. The mentor’s goal is to help their respective mentee develop skills and confidence to be responsible for their choices. Emphasis is placed on improved academic skills, career development and social/emotional development.
