The Work We Do

The BRO Project

The BRO Project is an immersive 9-month journey tailored to empower young men of color, aged 18 to 24, seeking reconnection to community, school, and their greater purpose.

Behind the Bars

Behind the Bars is a music-focused cognitive-behavioral program for middle and high schoolers, using lyrics and poetry to inspire reflection, connection, and growth.

The Little BRO Programs

Little BRO Summer Camp and Little BRO Saturdays offer 3rd-5th grader boys a nurturing environment to build literacy, creativity, friendships, and social-emotional skills.

Daddy and Me Project

A focus grouped tailored to helping fathers grow and be supported in their journey of fatherhood. This program provides a safe space to discuss challenges, share experience, and establish a foundation of growth.

Young men and men of color have few safe spaces to express their feelings, share ideas, and cultivate character. They lack consistent access to robust and well-funded resources in the community to support their social, emotional, cultural, civic, and economic development.

The B.R.O. Experience stands for Brothers Redefining Opportunity. Our mission is to build better humans by teaching and encouraging participants to be community change agents who are authentic, brave, and connected.
