Passport to Manhood Passport to Manhood promotes and teaches responsibility in boys ages 11 to 14.

Passport to Manhood consists of 14 sessions, each concentrating on a specific aspect of character and manhood through highly interactive activities. Each Club participant receives his own “passport” to underscore the notion that he is on a personal journey of maturation and growth.

The program includes a service project where boys learn the importance of giving back to the community.

Passport to Manhood represents a targeted effort to engage young boys in discussions and activities that reinforce character, leadership and positive behavior.
