"RESPECT... Every man wants it, but all men don't deserve it."

It is often said, that in order to get RESPECT then you must show it [first].  We instill in our young men that RESPECT begins with SELF-RESPECT.

It is far better to RESPECT yourself first than to seek others to show you RESPECT.

Perhaps the most undermined strategy for personal growth is self-awareness. In a world full of vanity and emphasis on "How do I look?"

It is critically important that we take the time to self-reflect and honestly evaluate ourselves (our character more so than our reputation, our values over our image).

With the many responsibilities along with distractions that we have in life, it is important to know how to prioritize the more important matters.

We spend a great deal of time driving home this point, and we ensure that our young men practice such on a regular basis.

The old adage says, "You can give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day.  But if you teach a man how to fish, he can eat for a lifetime."  

Rather than solving their problems for them, we teach our young men how to problem-solve for themselves.

We want to give back as much as possible to our communities.  We understand that we can truly make a difference in the world in which we live.  

All it takes is for a few to join in together and give unselfishly. So we teach our young men how to put UNITY back into our community.
