A successful dropout prevention intervention program for minority young boys "at-risk" of dropping out of school and/or choosing a life of crime. The program serves 6,792 students in 89 schools, which includes approximately 23 elementary, 33 middle and 33 senior high schools in Miami-Dade County. The expansion program in Pinellas County serves 450 students in 20 middle and senior high schools. The majority of students enter the program in middle school and continue activities throughout their high school and post-secondary education years. Primarily, the program serves children who are being reared without the benefit of a father or a positive male role model. The waiting list of applicants is staggering. Children who are ages 9-19-year-olds are referred by school principals, counselors, teachers and/or parents. Over 95 percent of the students who begin the program and graduate have no further negative contact with violations of student conduct codes or the law.  When students enter the program, they are guaranteed a chance to attend college or advance through a potpourri of post-secondary opportunities geared toward the next level of education. Eligible students are employed in the private sector throughout high school. Mentors from the program assist students in this process. Funds for scholarships are raised annually at the 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Unity Scholarship Breakfast. Thousands of young men have been recipients of this award since its inception in 1993. To date, over $5 million in scholarships have been awarded to students successfully completing the program. http://www.5000rolemodels.com.  The program is also celebrated by 44th President Barack Obama who has insured the program will continue to be a primary legacy iniative of his "My Brothers Keepers Program" nationwide.
