The Bakari Mentoring Program

Many in our society have a “lock 'em up and throw away the key” mentality when a teenager's life veers off path and they become problematic.  The Bakari Mentoring Program at Cal Poly University believes that many of our youth can be re-directed through their intensive program that instead builds career and life skill development opportunities.

Host Kris Kington Barker will be joined by Dr. Roslyn Caldwell, program director of the Bakari Mentoring Program, as well as two of her program participants to discuss this topic.  You are invited to listen and learn on Thursday between 1-2 pm.

Central Coast Voices is sponsored by ACTION for Healthy Communities in collaboration with KCBX.  The show addresses the many ramifications of change and how today’s choices will affect tomorrow’s community.  Suggestions for future show topics may be sent to voices@kcbx.

Kris Kington-Barker is co-host of Central Coast Voices, heard every Thursday on KCBX from 1:00—12:00 p.m. Kris has worked in healthcare fields ranging from mental health to hospital administration, and has served as a volunteer and board member for many Central Coast non-profit organizations.
