More about Beyond Boxing, Inc.
Beyond Boxing's target population, Justice Involved youth, faces and present programs with unique challenges, namely Recidivism. Beyond Boxing believes that the transformative processes and people in sports, are perfect for addressing these issues. As such we have chosen to embed our educational instruction, built around Social/Emotional learning, with in the forum of Boxing. Boxing gyms are often proximal to the neighborhoods our participants will come from, and their gyms and services are already recognized for reformative opportunities. The fulcrum around which our vision of change is built, is directly correlated to sports, the mentors there in, and finally the transformative process inherent to this type of activity.
