T.A.R.G.E.T.S. Mentorship Program

(Tenacity Allows Reaching Goals Even Through Struggles)

 

The TARGETS Program is a comprehensive mentorship and leadership development initiative created by Breaking Through Roadblocks (BTR) to equip young people with the tools, mindset, and exposure needed to succeed in life.

 

At its core, TARGETS is not a one-time program, it is an ongoing ecosystem of development. Through multiple 10-week cycles offered throughout the year, participants are consistently engaged, supported, and challenged at every stage of their journey.

These cycles serve as structured touchpoints within a larger framework that includes:

  • Leadership & Life Skills Development – decision-making, emotional intelligence, financial literacy, communication, and accountability

  • College & Career Exposure – college tours, career panels, and workforce readiness through partners like MassHire

  • Cultural & Educational Experiences – Black History tours, educational tours, and experiences that expand perspective

  • Academic Support – SAT/PSAT preparation and guidance toward higher education pathways

  • Community & Networking Opportunities – teen networking events and access to professionals and mentors

  • Ongoing Mentorship & Accountability – continued group discussions and check-ins beyond each cycle

  • Team Building & Leadership Development – hands-on workshops and activities that strengthen collaboration, communication, and trust

  • Group Outings & Experiential Learning – shared experiences that reinforce lessons, build relationships, and create lasting impact

  • Recreation & Engagement – sports and activities that build discipline, teamwork, and leadership

 

TARGETS is designed to meet young people where they are and grow with them over time. Each cycle builds on the last, creating consistency, reinforcement, and real transformation.

 

This isn’t just a program…

it’s a system of support, a pipeline for development, and a foundation for long-term success.
