Young Masterminds Initiative was created to offer youth, ages 13 to 18, an opportunity to participate in uniquely designed life skills and pre-college programs, with self-awareness, identity, and empowerment as a core focus.
Our programs are facilitated by people of color who seek to make a positive impact within their respective communities. This means engaging in structured, in-depth learning from professional men dedicated to their success, both personally and educationally, leaving a lifelong impression on participants, while instilling a deeper understanding about themselves, and the important role they play in their community.
With perspective shifting in mind, we teach Social and Emotional Learning skills, Integrated Identity, Educational Attainment, and Career Readiness, while instilling in our young men a Sense of Values, Agency, and Critical Consciousness. We also explore Purpose as a long term goal, as well as Financial Well-Being.
This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to opportunities to connect, learn and grow. Apply to become a young mastermind today!
