Mothers need an outlet to release their issues and concerns. Helping mothers be on purposes.
Provide at-risk 6 -24 years old male and low-moderate income single females raising boys with an educational support system that provides a comprehensive array of services, such as: online and group mentoring, seminars, workshops, conferences and family and friends activities. Services are designed to address the various risk factors, such as: negative generational habits, juvenile justice system involvement, gang involvement, school dropout, sexual relations, peer pressure, child abuse, drugs, alcohol, and tobacco usages.
Target Focus
The target market is for at risk boys between the ages of 8-24 being raised by single females (mothers, grandmothers, aunts, foster) households with low-moderate income. Single mothers of all income status have issues that need to be addressed with respect to raising their sons. A mother is attempting to raise a boy to be the opposite of her character, behavior, emotions and personality.
Education of life really begins at home. It is the parents primary responsibility to the social, moral, emotional, physical and positive values for the development of their boys to be successful men. Due to the divorce rates and wedlock; most of the time more than we would like to admit the mother is really the primary parent. But it helps when there is assistance available to mothers and sons if there is no positive male role model available. Sometimes the son is resentful of his situation and rebel against the mother. A boy needs a positive man in his life to assist his development of becoming a productive and successful man. It reduces the burden off the teachers, government and society as a whole.
