About Us

AOTP will not only be limited by our communities reach but visions to plant seeds throughout the country. To inspire a contagious change the link throughout the world.
Our Vision
Our vision is to inspire and provoke change in the following areas...

Help Stop Community Violence involving our youth - We want to encourage youth to think about other alternatives to resolve conflicts without violence.

We want to stand in the gap to help with mentoring kids where parents are absent or in need of additional morale support - We realize that many of our youth are suffering the absence of a positive male role model in their families.

Create a vision for dying communities - We want to encourage youth to take ownership and pride in their communities. At AOTP we promote education as a means to improve and propel ones self out of what seems like hopeless situations.
