10-SESSION PROGRAM, Ages 13+
Men of Honor, Set 1: Becoming Respectful, Nonviolent Leaders builds the framework for Men of Honor by exploring “man box” messages promoted in the media and their effects on young men. Foundational sessions address topics such as: Masculinity in the Media, Exploring Emotions, Becoming Nonviolent Leaders, Engaging in Education, with some themes covered over two sessions for expanded impact. Activities include use of digital media, media analysis, realistic scenarios in social and social media contexts, physical games, storytelling, art, an original school survival “board” game, journals, and an optional resume builder tool.
In order to optimize full benefit of this curriculum for young men, we recommend the program be provided as a whole, beginning with Set 1 followed by Set 2, as the sessions build upon each other to more fully develop the concepts, skills, and experiences toward becoming “men of honor.” However, for organizations unable to run 20 sessions, they may choose to select the sessions most applicable to the youth in their program.
An internet connection is required to view the online flipbook format. Each purchase comes with the ability to share flipbook access with up to 3 people in your organization.

Printed vs. Digital Activity Guides
Unsure which format is right for you? Our physical activity guides come in a durable 3-ring binder with a full-color cover and spine entrapped in plastic. The material within is printed on standard 8 ½” x 11” pages, which are 3-hole-punched and can be removed for duplicating handouts and forms or facilitator preparation and returned in place. Our digital flipbook activity guides are formatted for screen viewing and take advantage of this medium by employing a lot of color and interactive elements, such as embedded videos, web links, and navigation options for quickly jumping to different areas of the guide. Deciding which is right for you depends on which of these experiences you would find most comfortable as a facilitator.
