In 2009, Larry Smith's brother, Miles, tragically took his own life. Not long after this devastating loss, Larry took the initiative to create a group he named "Males with a Plan" in memory of his brother. Driven by a deep desire to establish a mental and physical safe haven for young men, Larry aimed to provide a space where they could freely express themselves. Fueled by this commitment, he developed a strategic prevention model with the ultimate goal of saving lives.
Our mission at Males with a Plan is to empower lives through a multifaceted approach. We focus on Peer-to-Peer discussions, Community Engagement, and Economic and Employment Sustainability. This holistic strategy aims to prevent antisocial behavior and combat the alarming rise in suicidality documented in recent years across cities. Join us in making a positive impact on the lives of young men, fostering resilience, and building a community that stands together against these challenges.
