Young Men Mentorship Program
Repositioning the boy child through mentorship and coaching.
OVERVIEW
About the programme
For a long time the boy child has lacked mentors while more attention has gone to the girl child. This gap has led many young men into alcohol and drug addiction and other harmful behaviours that affect families and society, and many face mental health challenges.
The Young Men Mentorship Program targets boys and young men aged 12 to 20. With partners, we mentor and coach them to become responsible men in society.
