Foundations
McMillen Foundation
The McMillen Family foundation brings MPOWRD to Anaheim and Huntington Beach.
The mission of MPOWRD is to empower all youth to believe in, to focus upon, and to commit to positive personal success through the MPOWRD Leadership and Prevention Program.
MPOWRD, an evidence-based peer to peer intervention, offers online training for qualified adult facilitators within middle and high schools, youth support programs, clinic and treatment centers, juvenile justice systems, college campuses, along with health and wellness agencies.
MPOWRD’s strategies provide empowering opportunities through peer discussion and problem-solving within healthy life decision making.
MPOWRD’s four-hour online training utilizes modules to teach this structured and integrative process with certification available for professionals in approved settings.
MPOWRD’s weekly meeting materials can be downloaded within the training process and have been prepared for immediate use upon the start of this program.
