We consistently add programs, initiatives, and projects that focus on our youth education as well as partner with State and Local Government agencies, Community Base Organizations, Civic Groups, Higher Learning institutions, and more to achieve our goals. We will continue to focus on Socially Disadvantage and Under-served youth nationwide in rural and urban communities.

 Our themes have always been Youth Communications in Agriculture, Business, and Educational Initiatives that leads youth to “Leadership and Capacity Building which will Impact your Community, and Strengthen Youth and Family Foundations” in rural and small towns. These initiatives are helping children, families, and communities. The anti-achievement culture among rural youth and the politics that fuels the non-compliance gets in the way of educating OUR children. This theme was incorporated because education is the backbone of rural America youth and we need to do more.

 Our programs have filled the void from a rapid decline of minorities’ vocational programs and outreach, as well as help significantly influence rural youth initiatives in business, technology, agriculture, and more as a way of life in America. Some of our past and present partners are, USDA, Small Farms Coordination; USDA, Farm Service Agency; Oklahoma Black Historical Project; USDA, Office of Outreach; Washington, DC, USDA, Forest Service; USDA, NRCS; MNA,LLC; USDA, FSIS; Atlanta Spirit Corporation; Businessman Cobby M.
