YOUTH DEVELOPMENT AND ENGAGEMENT

Timothy Project

The Timothy Project is intended to transition young men into roles of communal participation, spiritual growth, and leadership development. This fellowship includes group discussions and personal dialogue as a means of establishing working relationships among the young men as well as with the elder male members. The program also includes a series of mentoring workshops and supervised trips, with the goal of bridging the generation gap and providing additional guidance for our young men. The Timothy Project responds to the lack of available programs that meet the needs of young men of color specifically to support workforce development and decrease youth crime in our community.

It is the mission of The Timothy Project to provide strong leadership, activism, committed volunteers, positive role models, and a network of mentors that will be available to our members on their life journey.
