Join Geno Jones at the Boyz to Men Conference
Afternoon Session on Violence, Manhood & Healthy Relationships
Saturday, Aug. 26 | West Ashley High School

Your son is being offered a gift. Too often both Men and Boys are left out of the conversation when it comes to ending violence against women. The 2023 Boyz to Men Conference serves to change that narrative and to Enlighten, Encourage and Empower young men and boys.

Star 99.7’s Geno Jones will host the afternoon session at the Saturday, Aug. 26 event at West Ashley High School. Among the topics being covered are healthy relationships, bullying, gun violence, understanding male masculinity and the root cause of physical/sexual violence.

The conference keynote speakers include:

  • Representative Wendell G. Gilliard
  • Cyrus Birch
  • Eric Watson
  • Maxwell Highsmith

The mission of the conference is to provide our youth solutions and alternatives to violence, and to teach them consent and respect for women in general.
