For Young Men

Project Sakinah can arrange for leadership in your community to be trained to present the educational workshop, “Young Men’s Work.” Developed and pilot-tested extensively with groups of teenage males by staff of the Oakland Men's Project (Oakland, California), the curriculum package gives youth group facilitators a carefully-crafted set of teaching modules and exercises for challenging stereotypes and belief systems that condone or contribute to men's violence.

Exercises designed to help young men break out of the "act like a man" box and develop more expressive and supportive relationships with peers and partners are included.
