Youth on the Move: Rise, Young Man!
A 12-week mentorship experience for young men ages 11–15, building life skills, confidence, responsibility and a clearer sense of purpose, one conversation at a time.
Presented by Chaplain Anthony James · M.O.V.E.
Mentorship that makes room for honesty
A steady voice. A safe table. A future with options.
Anthony has a gift for meeting young men with warmth and respect. He listens without writing them off, and creates room for even a closed-off or angry young man to share what is really on his mind: his feelings, pressures and challenges. From there, honest conversation can become a starting point for growth.
The program pairs caring mentorship with practical tools. Young men practice communication, personal responsibility, goal-setting, financial basics, character and integrity, with guidance from positive male role models.
The 12-week program
Skills for the choices and conversations ahead.
Youth on the Move is designed to help young men build practical habits and a stronger sense of possibility. Growth looks different for every participant; the program offers consistent guidance, practice and encouragement along the way.

Naming a meaningful goal and making a practical plan to pursue it.

For parents & caregivers
Give your young man a place to be heard and encouraged.
The ages of 11 to 15 bring big questions and changing pressures. Youth on the Move offers a consistent, caring mentoring space where young men can practice life skills, build confidence and learn that their choices matter.
The program overview includes the schedule, focus areas, participation details and ways to connect with Anthony.
For schools & organizations
Support young people with guidance that continues beyond one assembly.
Anthony can partner with schools and community organizations on assemblies, after-school programming and mentoring for youth who could benefit from additional support. Sessions can focus on purpose, communication, personal responsibility, discipline, goal-setting and positive choices. The aim is to help young people build habits that support stronger engagement at school and in their communities; individual outcomes vary.
