Our work
Culture, community and justice.
Each arena has its own programs and its own people. Here is how they fit together.
01 Culture
Hip hop, film and the Brief.
Hip hop, film and media that tell young people the truth about who they can become.
Hip hop culture change, documentary films made with production partners, media and storytelling, and the Daily Brief.
02 Community
Bring the fathers home.
Fathers home, men formed, families steady, and young people ready to work and lead.
Fatherhood, biblical manhood, workforce and financial literacy, and leadership development for youth, young adults and the next generation of public servants and attorneys.
03 Justice
Before the record writes the story.
Reaching young people before a record decides the story, and pushing for a system that restores.
Juvenile intervention and our JCVI model, re-entry, grants for community-led programs, and reform work in Miami and Houston.
