Mentoring:
The philosophy of MP360 is that through adults teaching and role modeling for adolescents the principles of true young man and woman will have a deeper meaning and purpose for life. The MP360 program participant spends time with his adult mentor on a one to one basis beginning the process of restoring the broken image of a “Male Role Model”. As their relationship builds the mentor begins to instill in the youth the Concept of La Palabra, the Word, is instilled in the youth. With statements that is, I give you my Word, I will not hurt you. I will be a good example for you. I will get you the help you need. I will value you. You can trust me.”
