Don’t Take Our Word For It

  • "It quickly became apparent that our boys not only needed these sessions, but looked forward to them as they filled a missing gap in their social & emotional personal and collective needs."

  • "THE ROAD has been an incredibly powerful experience for our son but for us as well, observing our son come back from each sessions alive, intrigued, kind, inspired. We have always believed that it takes a village to raise a child and THE ROAD has been one of the 'village' members."

  • "My son loved this course. It made a huge impact on him. The things he learned are not taught in a school setting and are so important to a teen learning to navigate his way in this confusing world. I would recommend this as a must for every teenager."

  • "This group has brought all of us closer as friends. It’s given us a great space to share and discuss topics that usually wouldn't come up in our daily chats. I feel as though it’s opened our minds to deeper topics."

  • "THE ROAD gave me and my group the opportunity to grow better together, by allowing us to express ourselves in ways we don’t feel comfortable doing with others. It allowed us to open our doors and let people know what was going on behind the closed doors. Without THE ROAD I wouldn’t have created the stronger bonds that I now have, and because of it, our group are all the more tighter."

  • It is hard to put into words what a deep impact this has had on him as a 16 and (now) 17 year old. He has been part of so many powerful, relevant, and meaningful conversations that have given him a great understanding of himself and the world around him as a growing teenager. The group has been able to talk sincerely and courageously about things that can sometimes beyond the scope of a parent (drugs/alcohol, sex, relationships, emotions, self identity) as well as some practical areas like money and personal goals. On top of that, our son enjoyed two fantastic trips away, where challenging mountains were climbed and deep discussions were had. We couldn't have asked for more. My only wish is that as many boys as possible have the opportunity to do this work , as I can honestly say it will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives."

  • "At the beginning, I was slightly reluctant to the idea of having a consistent Road session every Wednesday as I didn’t really see the value of it. As time passed, and we did more sessions, I started to become more open minded to the sessions and started seeing the value in them. I learned a lot about men and their experiences in the world, money and how to manage it, love, drugs, etc. We’ve been meeting almost every Wednesday for about a year and I feel it’s been a monumental part of all of our development. I learned a lot about my friends that I feel wouldn’t have been discussed if we didn’t have a space for it. Thank you 🙏❤️"

  • "It’s a really great space to just discuss things with people and a space where u can share your problems or things you are unsure about and get other people opinion without feeling to judged."

  • "An opportunity for young men to express and learn about things that society doesn’t really get the chance to teach as in depth."
