Manhood Planning

Individual Educational Planning
Adolescent African American males struggle significantly when compared to other students in school. Educational planning is provided to assist students with the examination, evaluation and modification of current academic status. In addition to this educational audit, client’s strengths and preferences are explored for the purpose of developing a comprehensive academic and personal life’s work plan.

As your educational planner, I will work with you to evaluate your strengths and gifts and provide an individual success plan (ISP) and scorecard. Your personalized evaluation will be aligned with your personalized academic and social plan in preparation for your God given purpose and destiny.

Individual Manhood Planning
Planning is an intricate part of most of what we do, ironically very little or no planning occurs when it comes to preparing for something as critical and important as becoming a man. This service affords clients the opportunity to explore the perceptions and images of manhood and masculinity. Clients learn to recognize false images of manhood while embracing God’s purpose and expectation of man. The client will ultimately develop a written individual manhood plan (IMP) and scorecard for the kind of man he desires to become and the method by which he will accomplish this goal.
