Brothers on the Rise

Brothers on the Rise responsibly empowers school-aged males 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 - Staff Development - Training - Consultation

We currently provide programs at Edna Brewer and Frick Middle Schools in Oakland, and are based out of the Spanish Speaking Citizen’s Foundation building in the Fruitvale neighborhood. We are excited to expand our programming to other schools, centers and the community at large during the coming years.
