The JHP Community Center
conducts a Leadership Apprenticeship, Mentoring, Program or
LAMP, and is funded
through After School Matters. LAMP is an
intensive ten week hands on paid apprenticeship program. Apprentices actively participate in developing organizational,
mentoring, teaching, and leadership skills based on the teachings of martial
arts as well as learning the benefits and careers available from serving others.
There have already been many positive influences on the
enrolled students. Since the start of the program last October, LAMP has
enrolled up to twenty-five youth ages 14 to 18, and implemented a hands on
environment that has cultivated leadership development in MODKA and has
allowed students to apply these skills by assisting in the implementation of
our after school programs.
Physical
training is required. All martial arts uniforms are supplied as well as
daily stipends during the apprenticeship. Teens undergo an interview and
selection process; if chosen teens are required to attend three days per week,
three hours per day. The location and exact times will be announced.
Activities in the program
include:
 |
Extensive and intense martial
arts training in MODKA. |
