LEARNERS in LEADERSHIP - fka Passport to Manhood
Young people aged 8-17 are participating in our newly refreshed Passport to Manhood Program. This program will now be known as LEARNERS in LEADERSHIP! The goal of the program is to teach and promote responsibility, reinforce positive behavior and develop character in our young people. This dinner celebrates the graduation of Club members from the Learners in Leadership program.
Club members embark on a journey to become responsible, healthy and courageous young people through the program, including life long skills shared by local leaders.
Designed to guide young boys on their journey to manhood, supporting them as they begin to let go of adolescent ways of thinking and acting, face various challenges that call on their strength and resilience and consciously adopt the attitudes and behaviors of adulthood.
Our Learners in Leadership program is designed to instill in Club members the understanding, skills and strategies they need to make a successful transition to adulthood:
✔ a clear sense of identity and self-esteem;
✔ the ability to make positive, values-based decisions and choices;
✔ strategies and motivation for academic success;
✔ an understanding of health and wellness;
✔ practices for responding to authority;
✔ ways to relate to and communicate with others;
✔ tools to explore career possibilities;
✔ an appreciation of diversity;
✔ skills for communication, conflict and cooperation; and
✔ an understanding of personal responsibility and leadership.
Each boy is on a journey to himself and his purpose in life! The goal of the journey is for each to become aware of their unique gifts, seek ways to contribute to others and learn how to become a valuable member of the community.
As they undertake this journey, they are encouraged by mentors and peers and, at the end, return with a greater sense of self and purpose, an increased awareness of their own inner resources.
Please consider sponsoring our program and celebration. Each graduate of the program will receive commemorative pin and certificate at the event as well as enjoy a dinner and a program surrounded by fellow graduates from across our organization.
To help sponsor our efforts, please contact Ronda Tousciuk, Program Director, at (989) 737-7677. We are incredibly honored to be able to get a little piece of normalcy back into our youth programs. Thank you for your consideration.
