Boys To Men Mentoring Network Of Virginia Inc
Boys to Men Mentoring Network of Virginia (BTMVA) offers young men a safe place where they can talk about what is really going on in their lives, as well as a community of mentors and peers who listen, believe in them and help them make better choices.
BTMVA is now in seven school districts (Richmond, Petersburg, Hopewell, Chesterfield, Henrico, Colonial Heights & Prince George). Every week, we are holding 35 group mentoring circles in middle & high schools as well as in the community. We even added a community circle for 18-25 yr old young men. There are over 500 young men that we see every week to offer social-emotional support.
