Boys'
Passage, Mentorship & Skill-building
• Boys
To Men Mentoring Network (BTM)
provides boys with a coming of age “rite of passage adventure
weekend" where positive qualities such as integrity, courage,
respect, passion, and leadership are modeled by adult male staff.
• Through a series of carefully facilitated processes,
each boy discovers something of the scope of his own humanity.
Boys are challenged and supported in new ways, and find that
they can respond in new ways. They find their own integrity,
courage, respect, passion, and leadership and they discover
that they can access these qualities and put them to work.
• It is an exhilarating, life-changing experience that
many say they will never forget.
• After the weekend, for 9 months, the "Journeymen"
attend twice a month J-groups with peers and mentors.
• They can also participate in Hawk of May Journey
training modules before, during or after their Coming of Age
year in various modalities
like Wilderness Education, Adventure Leadership and Empowerment
Arts.
• They can finish their year with a 5 day Threshold Challenge
Quest.
