No. The main office is located at 495 Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, but the groups in person across our four partner states and seven partner schools.

We conducted a pilot program in 2018 that had proven to be a success, so we officially rolled out the program in 2019. It has been rapidly growing ever since!

Our program is unique because: We exclusively cater to boys and their needs. We intentionally keep our group sizes small - no larger than 12 kids. These boys enter the program from different schools; not just from the same school-like most school based affinity programs. We frequently have guest speakers that are influential adult males (or high school males) to impart some wisdom & knowledge to these young boys.

An affinity group is a group of people who share interests, issues, a common background and offer each other support. People who make up an affinity group share a common identifier, such as race, gender, religion, family status or sexual orientation. In this group, students are given the opportunity to share their personal journeys and family stories as well as examine the world around them as it relates to them as a Black or Brown boy. We do this in a comfortable in person setting. Through activities and discussions, students will pose questions, discover answers, and develop their voices. The ultimate goal for this group is for students to build a healthy sense of self so that they will always feel empowered to engage deeply with others in the wider community.

We practice character building. Our primary focus is on our 5 core values: Confidence Respect Awareness Belonging Leadership Discussions and activities are based on each core value. If one has a suggestion for a topic, great! We encourage friends to lead discussions that are important to them.

There is a maximum of 12 boys in a group. We like to keep it intimate so that it allows us to give everyone the attention that they need and deserve.

Yes. We make ourselves available upon request. (Additional fee)

If your son identifies as a Black or Brown boy, he is welcome to join.

We allow them to "have a moment" and when they feel that they are ready to join in and participate with the rest of the group, they jump right in!
