Dare To Be King: What If The Prince Lives?
is a comprehensive tool for community leaders, educators, and youth service providers to engage urban, suburban and rural youth around issues of violence and community life. Youth violence, gang involvement and crime are symptomatic of problems in the larger arenas of family, school, community, and society. The Dare To Be King curriculum serves as a "blue print" for Rites of Passage/manhood development training programs and organizations working exclusively with African American males.
David Miller and Lamarr Darnell Shields were guests of The National Public Radio interview as they were leading a recent anti-gang discussion at the Police Athletic Leaque in Northeast Baltimore. Click on the play button of the audio player below to listen to the NPR news report.
We have assembled a collection of tools to help single parents, guardians and community leader leaders begin to engage youth around issues related to youth violence. The curriculum is designed for middle & high school age youth who are often the victims and perpetrators of school and community violence.
