Brothers on the Rise
Brothers on the Rise responsibly empowers male youth to achieve individual success, develop healthy relationships and contribute to a more just and equitable society. We accomplish this through gender-responsive programs that engage males personally and professionally in social service and social change:
Counseling - Conflict Resolution - Leadership Development - Mentoring - Organizing - Youth Workshops - Workforce Development
Parent Education - Staff Development - Training - Consultation
We are based out of the Spanish Speaking Citizen’s Foundation in Fruitvale and provide programs at Edna Brewer and Frick Middle Schools, as well as Futures and Community United Elementary School. We are excited to expand our programming to other schools, centers and the community at large during the coming years.
