We'd love to see you on March 5th and 6th!

We have an exciting new training offering on March 5th and 6th in Portland, we'd like to invite you to.

This training is designed for helpers who work with boys and men—including clinicians, educators, coaches, and community practitioners—and is offered in partnership with Maine Boys to Men. Many men today feel caught between outdated expectations and rapid social change, leaving them without clear or healthy models for emotional expression, connection, and belonging. These challenges often show up as isolation, anger, depression, or disengagement.

Grounded in Motivational Interviewing (MI), this training explores compassionate, non-judgmental ways to engage men and boys around emotions, identity, relationships, and purpose. Participants examine the cultural forces shaping men’s emotional isolation and learn relational approaches that move away from fixing or shaming and toward dignity, autonomy, and connection, supporting a more integrated and emotionally literate vision of masculinity.
