The Manhood Adolescent Challenge
was originally designed as a Community Based Program for adolescent boys in grades
7 through 10.

However, upon the request of several school counselors, noting the anxieties in the younger/ elementary aged boys, the program curriculum was adapted to include and to suit boys in grades 3 through 6.

Strong bonds developed between the mentors and the students. Beyond the curriculum, aggressive behaviors and disciplinary actions decreased, and the boys looked forward to coming to school and learning.
