"This curriculum addresses the complex intersection of male socialization, also known as the Man Rules, with the tenets of therapy and the process of healing; childhood, adolescent and adult trauma; and relational struggles, particularly issues of healthy attachment, that male-identified participants often find themselves experiencing. The primary goal of this curriculum is to help participants create a vision of the men they want to be and to provide them with the awareness, tools, and confidence to achieve that vision. Each of the eighteen, two-hour co-facilitated sessions includes activities, exercises and experiential opportunities enabling each participant to connect with the content on a personal level. The program is wide-ranging and encompasses a variety of topics to help each participant develop increased self-awareness to enhance their relationships. The material will stretch both participants and facilitators alike. The sessions are designed to take a deep and comprehensive look at everything that blocks them from being the best men they can be. The curriculum speaks to all learning styles using kinesthetic, audio, and visual engagement through the use of art, physical movement, and role plays. Participants are given additional learning opportunities in the form of assignments to complete between sessions. These assignments build upon the role plays and in-session practice that the participants receive in order to help them translate the material directly into their own lives"--
