Boys Program
Programs
The POINT provides a variety of opportunities for boys aged 8-18 to interact with their peers and volunteers in a safe, engaging and Spirit-filled environment. Through inspirational teachings, mentoring, recreation and structured activities, we seek to instill values of faith, hard work, integrity, service and leadership. It is our hope that every boy who walks through our door experiences increased self-esteem, improves academically, grows deeper spiritually and exhibits leadership and kindness toward one another.
Daily Teachings
Each night students have opportunities to hear inspirational messages and/or educational teachings from local church groups, volunteers and/or community members.
Boys Night Out
One Friday a month The POINT is open from 7-10PM for boys to socialize, play games/sports and hear an inspirational message. The evening provides an opportunity to increase student’s one-to-one interaction with positive adult role models and generates a safe alternative to wandering the streets or engaging in risky behavior.
Leaders in Training
Older boys who have displayed a high level of commitment and responsibility are invited to participate in our Leaders in Training Program. The boys come early each evening and are mentored by volunteers to grow in leadership roles by helping to clean, facilitate discussions, welcome new students, supervise younger students, and to model and enforce positive responses to conflict among their peers.
