Men at Work African American Male Mentor Group: Power of Collaboration Award

At East High School, many African American males face similar struggles and difficulties, and until now, there was no real outlet to express and explore these experiences. That is why a Goodwill resource counselor decided to create a unique mentor group to address these issues. The Men at Work African American Male Mentor Group is comprised of professional African American mentors and young African American students and provides an opportunity for the young men to connect with positive professional men in the community. The group discusses everything from school work, grades and the college experience to healthy interactions with authority figures and overcoming personal and professional adversity. Mentors and mentees alike take pride in the groups success and relish in the bonds that have been created.

This is brilliant... I mentor with African-American males with an organization in Nashville, TN, called All The Kings Men, Inc. The work you men are doing at East High School is so necessary and incredibly valuable. Thank you for being a part of the solution! Outstanding work!
