Our program is grounded in the principles of peer-led intervention while identifying root causes to devise effective solutions. This process is aligned to the National Health Standards specific to this population.
  • Peer-Led Interventions: MPOWRD leverages the power of peer influence to promote positive behavioral changes.

Evidence-Based Methodologies

  • MPOWRD utilizes research-backed methodologies proven effective in transforming the lives of young people. Our program is grounded in the principles of peer-led intervention and social-emotional learning, which have been extensively studied and validated in the fields of psychology and education.
  • Peer-Led Interventions: MPOWRD leverages the power of peer influence to promote positive behavioral changes. Studies have shown that peer-led programs can significantly improve participants' emotional and social competencies, leading to reduced incidences of negative behaviors and increased engagement in school and community activities.
  • Personal Growth & Development: At the core of our curriculum is a strong emphasis on personal growth and development, which equips young people with the skills to manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions. Research indicates this type of learning not only improves academic achievement but also increases prosocial behaviors (such as kindness, sharing, and empathy), improves student attitudes toward school, and reduces depression and stress among students.
  • By incorporating these evidence-based approaches, MPOWRD ensures that our programs are not only effective but also adaptable to the needs of diverse youth populations, including those in correctional settings.
