5000 Role Models of Excellence

  • The 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project aims to intervene in the lives of at-risk minority male youth in an effort to provide them with positive role models and experiences that will empower them to make good choices and encourage healthy living, responsibility, respect, and achievement.  Expected outcomes include improved academic performance, reduced truancy, fewer referrals and suspensions, and increased pathways to success through mentoring and diverse experiences.
  • Young men from grades 6 - 12 will participate in various cultural and educational experiences such as visits to college campuses, etiquette workshops, and job and career building training. Students will also serve as ambassadors for the program.
