Melvyn Davis is Founder and Project Manager for the Coram boys2MEN Project (an innovative group work and mentoring program for boys and young men).
Boys2MEN is an experiential group work program of music, arts and life-experience and sports for boys, young people and fathers/parents. It aims to assist males who are considered vulnerable, challenging, and hard to reach or at risk of social exclusion, to rediscover their potential and to successfully make the transition from childhood to adulthood and on to fatherhood.
A short eye-catching homily is printed in purple on boys2MEN brochures which reads: “A boy…a male…and a Man are not the same…A male is a biological term, a boy is in a state of transition and a Man is defined as someone who has a purpose and a greater sense of responsibility… We need to teach our children the difference…”
