Men and Boys

A compassionate man courageously cares for himself and others.

The mission of the Men and Boys Compassion Initiative (MBCI) is to educate both professionals and the public about what defines a strong, compassionate man, while also promoting compassion towards and from men and boys. We focus on elevating the caring and sharing aspects of being male, while also minimizing the dominating and callous ones.

“There must be a fundamental misunderstanding about the nature of compassion because compassion is very powerful…Compassion protects us more than guns, bombs, and money.” – Thich Nhat Thahn
