To develop the next generation of thought leaders, community builders, professionals, and entrepreneurs in the Black community, we must begin by mentoring, motivating, and equipping children with the necessary skills, attitudes, and confidence they need to succeed in life.
In this episode of Hey, I’m Listening, Dr. Joan speaks with Shaun ‘SF’ Banks about the Mentorship of kids in the Black Community.
Shaun SF. Banks have been involved in the youth development industry for over 20 years, focusing on developing youths’ self-confidence and self-efficacy. As a result, SF excels at motivating kids to go after their dreams and educating families on effective ways to produce the best version of their children. In 2007, SF opened the I AM Defense institute against profound disinterest in working with children. Since that time, he has developed a passion for creating personal development systems for youth.
