Practicing Self Governance
Through individual and group meditation a person discovers the ability to center and calm themselves in the face of any situation in general but particularly in chaotic situations most importantly. Thus allowing them to tap into the most appropriate response. We believe if there is no enemy within then the enemies without can do us no harm.
Relationship Building
People and Projects are the key components to building and sustaining any community. Whether organizing neighbors to clean a community or soliciting political and investor support to construct a youth center; these processes all require effective communication. And along with people comes differences of opinions which places importance on learning good conflict resolution skills early in life. To the point where disagreements become agreements to disagree and people remain allies for the greater good of the community. We believe and teach that people are important and your network will determine your net worth.

Historical Lessons
The Black community have had a host of wins throughout history; however, I think we all agree that our community continues to suffer from far more defeats in different areas but specifically in community development. And we believe that to find the root cause of any problem one must start from studying the it origin. We pride ourselves on the fact that we work with elders to learn their lessons as well as consistently studying our losses which brings discovery of how to win moving forward.
Holistic Health
Ancient cultures as well as current science agrees that daily exercise, proper nutrition and a nurturing environment are essential to a persons overall health. ASCN Youth program understands that overall health is a continuum where there isn't an end goal; rather an ever evolving process that requires consistent health conscience decisions. With our weekly activities we are committed to life's journey.
