Our PROGRAMS
HEAL, RECOVER & GROW
Because Healing Isn’t Enough Heal, Recover, and Grow provides therapeutic support for those who have lost loved ones to violence. This support helps them create legacies in their loved ones' memories and also assists them in their new journey.
Peer support sessions have been deemed to be very lucrative for survivors who have participated. By sharing stories, triumphs, and standstills, families have been restored and given strength for their new journey. Through support sessions, families are given the voice that has been silenced due to the stigma that comes along with the death of black and brown males (mostly by gun violence). The experience gained during these times makes attendees more relevant to saving families' futures.
BEYOND THE BLOCK
BEYOND THE BLOCK Empowering Youth to Break Barriers and Build Futures Beyond their current Optics
Beyond the Block is a transformative program designed to equip youth with the skills, resources, and mindset needed to rise above the limitations of their environment. Through mentorship, education, and hands-on experiences, we empower young people to expand their vision, overcome challenges, and create pathways to success—beyond the block they're growing up on.
NO. 2
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!
