Face Of The Future

“No Judgment…Just High Expectations!!!”

Curriculum Overview

Face of the Future (FOF) is a youth mentoring and empowerment curriculum, designed for youth in ‘at-risk’ situations with a focus on youth in foster care, restoration programs, and the juvenile justice system. Participants will learn the tenants of self-motivation, self-esteem building, self-value, forgiveness, communication effectiveness, conflict management and trigger control, goal setting, mental limitations, subconscious mind influence, and positive self-concept.


The curriculum includes programming focused on the core developmental ages of 13 – 21 years, and consists of specialized components for young men (Sophisticated G.E.N.T.S.) and young women (Dazzling D.I.V.A.S.). The curriculum is built on the principle that every youth is God’s masterpiece, created with extraordinary gifts and talents; and purposed to help each youth embrace hope and make destiny happen!

Why is Face of the Future Needed?

FOF focuses on all major areas of life skills development that impact pursuing and achieving success from a faith-based perspective. When our youth feel a strong sense of worth and value, believe in themselves, and feel they have someone or something to depend on, they are better equipped in decision making, relationship connections, goal setting, and long term planning. FOF helps them achieve those life-changing goals.

Every time we open our mouths to speak negatively against our youth, the way they act, the way they dress, or their attitudes, we speak death on our future. They don’t need our condemnation or criticism; they need our encouragement, guidance, and support. They need to know that we believe in them to achieve and do great things despite their current circumstances. That is the sole purpose of Face of the Future (FOF).

Six Guiding Principles of Face of the Future

PPR Programs

Face of the Future (FOF) consists of three curriculum components to meet the needs of all sectors of the community to reach any at-risk youth in need of PPR services.

1. Face of the Future: EmPower Me Mentoring (EMM) Program is PPR’s flag star curriculum consisting of 9-month youth development (mentorship) training. Youth will also participate in the gender-based fellowships, Dazzling D.I.V.A.S. or Sophisticated G.E.N.T.S. These forums provide the critical opportunity to continue growth after completion of the mentorship program or to have a platform for teens and young adults to be coached and mentored until personal support and Godly guidance is no longer needed, up to age 21.

2. Dazzling D.I.V.A.S. provides a course of instruction, mentoring, and coaching to inspire and empower at female teens and young women up to age 21 to become strong, successful women achieving the greatness they were born to fulfill.

3. Sophisticated G.E.N.T.S. provides guidance and mentoring to prepare at-risk male teens and young men up to age 21 to take a proactive approach to being leaders in their homes, schools, communities, and future professions.

** Both Dazzling D.I.V.A.S and Sophisticated G.E.N.T.S. have 2 core groups by age, 13 – 17, and 18 – 21.

Curriculum Mission

The mission of Face of the Future is to aid teens and young adults in at-risk situations to successfully chart the path from childhood to adulthood by providing them with the tools and skills needed to embrace and walk with a sense of God-ordained purpose. We seek to reach out to the economically disadvantaged and the emotionally broken to help them see and get past their circumstances to live successful, empowered, victorious lives.

The mission guidelines include the following:

The Curriculum

The signature youth curriculum in FOF is a 6-part curriculum for a 9-month period of mentorship which includes open discussions, life skills training, coaching, mentoring, role play, homework projects, field trips, and special events. The curriculum involves the following 6 components:

Understand Who You Are:

Embrace Your Unique Process:

Position for the Long-Term WIN:

Success and the Etiquette Game:

Dating the Right Way:

Embrace the Real You:

Graduation Ceremony

At the end of the FOF curriculum, participating youth will plan a formal banquet to celebrate curriculum completion, facilitating the process that was started in Module 5, and employing the skills learned during training. The banquet will serve as the formal graduation ceremony.

Dazzling D.I.V.A.S. will be expected to employ the utmost of grace and decorum in behavior, attitudes and actions. Sophisticated G.E.N.T.S. will be expected to portray the essence of gentlemanly distinction and chivalry in managing the date.

Successful participants under the age of 18 will be asked to voluntarily commit to their destiny journey and to be all that they can be in life by signing a Commit to Chastity Agreement, in which they will seek to remain celibate for personal and spiritual success.

Depending upon funding, potential scholarships will be announced for high school juniors and seniors.

Parental/Guardian Module

Face of the Future also includes three 2-hour parental discussion sessions to be held once per quarter during the 9-month training period. The purpose of these training/discussion forums is to provide parents and guardians an opportunity to learn what their children are being introduced to, allow asking questions and getting answers, and improve parenting skills. This strategy will enhance and reinforce the development that the youth participants receive during the training. It will also help participating youth and young adults retain training information and aid parents / guardians in forging stronger family bonds, reunifying family commitments, and supporting the youth’s journey of change and success.

Mentorship / Volunteer Training

PPR programming is strongly dependent upon voluntarism for program operations and success for mentor services or operational support services. The Face of the Future curriculum requires dedicated mentors and volunteers willing to put time, resources, and energy into the plight of our youth. All mentors and volunteers will be required to submit to a background check before any contact with a youth participant. Additionally, all volunteers must attend a 2-hour training session sponsored by PPR to inform them of curriculum inclusions and curriculum expectations. Mentors will be required to attend an additional training session to ensure a sound foundation of mentorship principles and limitations. The mentorship training will be sponsored by PPR with training facilitation by skilled instructors.
