Our "I AM King" Mentoring Program is designed for men of color to facilitate activities that provide opportunities for boys of color to gain the social emotional skills and language that they need to manage their own lives and identities.

Using proven social-emotional and academic learning standards, the participants will not only experience personal development, but they will also experience academic growth. At a time where our most vulnerable students are being further left behind, this is increasingly important.

By the end of the program, the men and the boys will have a stronger sense of self and a deeper understanding of the need to have more men of color in the classroom.

Our mentors are potential candidates for our yearlong fellowship-- a new pathway to become a teacher.
