The I AM KING (IAK) Mentorship program gives Black male college students the opportunity to mentor boys of color in social-emotional learning. The mentoring program helps young boys develop a sense of self while giving Black male college students the opportunity to explore teaching.

The I AM KING program is 24 weeks and expands over the course of a school year. The curriculum is divided into two semester-long units.

Unit 1: Self-Discovery. In this unit, mentees learn how to identify emotions, so that they have a better understanding of self and can respond to and manage their emotions appropriately.
Unit 2: Social-Discovery. In this unit, mentees learn how their actions impact others and vice versa, especially with a diverse group of people and in different social settings.

Mentors from our program join our alumni network to get additional support to become and remain a teacher.
