Program Overview
You'll gain a clearer understanding of what the Live Respect curriculum covers, how you relate to it, and how you'll implement it. Participants learn about the "Man Box" and its impact on boys and men, recognize ways to develop positive identities in manhood, learn to advocate for themselves and others, and build healthy relationships — while developing a network of support from fellow cohort members.
The free curriculum was created by A Call to Men, a national organization promoting healthy, respectful manhood and providing training and resources to communities at all levels.
