Our PROGRAMS
BEYOND THE BLOCK
BEYOND THE BLOCK Project enables participants to experience career & cultural diversity. Through reading, research and excursions to cultural diverse areas and underexposed careers youth see things outside of their daily surroundings. The cultural aspect assists them in having a greater outlook on why some people do what they do.

King Ron Playing For Change Sports Program
Initiated in 2007 as a one day sports and live entertainment event, the King Ron Playing For Change basketball tournament was created to draw youth to hear the message of peace and unity as well as understanding the parallel between the decisions they make and the consequences that may arise.
The demands of the youth have turned this one day event into a Summer Sports Program with a therapeutic component. Not only do youth compete in basketball but they play in memory of a loved one that they have lost to violence. This allows them to have good grief and create a legacy for their loved one.
B.U.D.S.
Mentorship Program
B.U.D.S. (Brothers, Uncles, Dads, & Sons) is a mentorship program designed to bridge the gap between older and younger generations of men. Through interactive workshops and fun activities, younger participants are paired with older mentors who can provide them with guidance, resources, encouragement and wisdom that will help them make good life choices and secure their personal and professional success!
