Tyrone MS Male Leadership Institute 2022-2023

The Male Leadership Institute provides secondary educational readiness opportunities for underrepresented minority males, in middle and high school. Our program seeks to create educational opportunities to empower them to discover their full academic potential. In so doing, we integrate mentorship, service initiatives, and leadership principles to foster academic success, personal development, study skills, and workforce development skills along with some fun activities. Since 2010, The Male Leadership Institute has successfully supported hundreds of young men in the Tampa Bay area.

Introductory meeting and discussion of expectations. Parent participation is always welcome!

Mr. Bryant and Ms. Darling discussed how to start a community service project. They discussed the resources available and the processes necessary to consider when starting a project. The young men had the opportunity to hear how the Foundation for a Healthy St. Petersburg supports community initiatives.

Personal Coach Tony Sadiku worked with our young men to discuss having healthy physical and mental health practices. He discussed nutrition and how physical activity enhances our mental health. The young men ended the session with a relay race.

Chris Hackney, with Bay First Financial, joined our young men to discuss investing and commercial banking. The young men enjoyed questioning Mr. Hackney on how to gain the largest return on their future entrepreneurial ventures.

Hello, my name is Jharon Green. In my experience with the male leadership institute, I have learned lots of new things such as career paths and how to represent myself in a better way. The Male Leadership Institute is a safe space for young men to grow their minds and learn more about the world. In my time with this group, I have found careers that I might like to do someday. For example, I would like to be a loan officer which is a very trusted member of a bank. Their job is to hand out loans and make sure that it is safe to hand out the loan. Another career I would like to try is architecture. The architect's job is to design a structure before it is built. So, I think this is a great group of people to involve your children with.
