A non-profit organization for young men between the ages of 11-18 yrs old in Jersey City, NJ.
About us
Kismet of Kings serves Black and Brown male students ages 11-18 yrs old in Jersey City, New Jersey. The program engages this population, many of whom are from low-income households, in academic and social learning opportunities.
We aim to provide our young men with validation as they navigate the life they inherited.
Using the software EverFi, the young men will learn how to create and utilize a budget to govern their everyday lives.
The adolescents will develop literacy skills through exposure to social media, articles, journals, music, videos, etc.
Our young men will develop a keen awareness of the spiritual connection to one’s ancestors. When one learns who he is, he’s able to walk in the world more confident and determined to be successful.
Provides learners with the necessary skills to navigate through life successfully (i.e. typing, creating, resume writing, etc). The circle equips students with the tools necessary to play positive roles in their communities and exposes them to emotional, social peer, and adult influences through restorative justice practices.
