Subscribe to Next Gen Men’s newsletter, Future of Masculinity, a mental space where our readers get to do the work—of examining, unpacking, learning, unlearning, and questioning—together as a community.
Regardless of your gender identity or expression, if you have a position of leadership and you hope to leverage that power to engage the boys or men that you work with, this community is for you!
Anyone looking to build their knowledge and skills about how to effectively engage the boys and men in their lives in gender justice is invited to join—whether gender justice is new or familiar to you, we welcome your curiosity and courage.
