About Boyz 2 Men
Our mission, at Boyz 2 Men Mentoring, is to build communities of male role models who, through consistent group mentoring, encourage and empower teenage boys ages 12-17 to follow their dreams.
We have a proven approach that produces real change within young men. The circumstances and daily environment that many of our nation’s youth experience is heartbreaking. Despite this reality, we cannot help but remain passionate and optimistic for we have found an answer that works for these young men.
Every week, our mentors will show up at middle schools, high schools, and community centers to give teenage boys a community of men who listen, encourage, and empower them. Approximately 40% of the boys participating in our programs are growing up without a father.
Our community-based mentoring approach gives boys a variety of positive male role models who show up consistently, tell the truth about their struggles as men, ask the boys what kind of man they want to be, praise them for their gifts, support them when they mess up, and encourage them to become the man they want to be.
We are dedicated to providing this opportunity to every boy in need.
