ADDITIONAL TRAININGS & PROGRAMS

Men’s Peer-Facilitated Support Groups – Called “Integration Groups” or “I-Groups”, our circles help men deepen skills for conflict resolution, listening, emotional intelligence, goal achievement, and healthy boundary setting. I-Groups help men find and nurture a healthy, powerful and positive masculinity through the daily transitions of modern life. MKP serves a growing network of nearly 1000 peer support groups meeting weekly or biweekly, serving close to 10,000 men. I-Groups form the heart of our brotherhood, and are frequently open to visitors and guests. See I-Group for local information.

Primary Integration Training (PIT)The PIT is an 8-10 week facilitated curriculum for men who have completed the New Warrior Training Adventure to learn and practice a variety of skills for effective peer-facilitated support groups and I-Group participation. Men who complete the PIT are prepared to be valuable participants in an I-Group or similar peer-support groups. 


Primary Integration Training Intensive (PIT Intensive)The PIT Intensive is an 2 day facilitated intensive curriculum for men who have completed the New Warrior Training Adventure to learn and practice a variety of skills for effective peer-facilitated support group and I-Group participation. The PIT Intensive condenses the curriculum into a 48 hour training that covers the fundamentals for building and maintaining a men’s support group.


New Warrior Training Adventure Leadership Training Curriculum – The ManKind Project has created a Leadership Training curriculum that empowers men to live with profound personal integrity and master a wide array of conscious leadership skills. Completion of all Leader Trainings, along with extensive mentoring, peer evaluation, and facilitation experience are prerequisite to sitting for international certification as a New Warrior Training Adventure Leader.
