Boys 2 Gentlemen (B2G) was founded by Mr. Keith Linton, a retired LAPD police officer, in 2015. Currently, B2G partners with Los Angeles County elementary, middle, and high schools and builds safe spaces for student mentorship, social-emotional learning, safe passage, peace-building, community empowerment, and health & wellness programming. Beneficiaries include inner-city youth, parents, and school administrations.
We envision a world where inner-city youth are no longer considered “at-risk”. Instead, they are considered “at-hope”. Boys 2 Gentlemen believes that by delivering a continuum of prevention, assessment, intervention, mentorship, and treatment – we will get there.
Boys 2 Gentlemen is dedicated to empowering young people to seek, do, and be all the things they once thought were impossible.
Boys 2 Gentlemen makes a positive difference in the lives of inner-city youth through positive relationships that help young people reach their highest potential. B2G programs build confidence and compassion for others while also building competent skill-sets for life success.
Boys 2 Gentlemen empowers. Boys 2 Gentlemen cares. Boys 2 Gentlemen uplifts. Boys 2 Gentlemen builds better students. Boys 2 Gentlemen changes lives.
Full-year Safe Passage, Peace-Building, Community Development, Mentorship, Health & Wellness, Social-Emotional Learning and Leadership program curriculums are available for LAUSD schools, charter schools, and any other school district.
