How MPOWRD Works in Schools

Participating in MPOWRD training not only prepares staff to run the program but also contributes to their professional development by enhancing their leadership, communication, and facilitation skills. The training provides valuable experience in youth mentorship and engagement, and by the end of the training, staff members will be fully prepared to implement the MPOWRD program.
MPOWRD for Middle School Students
Our middle school program, known as 2B MPOWRD, introduces younger students to the fundamentals of self-awareness, empathy, and peer support. Through engaging activities and guided discussions, students learn to:
- Recognize and express their emotions constructively.
- Build strong, supportive relationships with peers.

The 2B MPOWRD curriculum is designed to be fun and interactive, helping students navigate the often turbulent years of early adolescence with confidence and support.
