Boys Incorporated



Boys Incorporated, founded in 2009 by Reginald Johnson Sr. was created out of his desire to provide a safe harbor and an alternative to our young adolescents who are roaming the streets of Memphis and this nation with dangerous intent from the lack of Leadership, sense of Direction, or Purpose in their lives.  We as parents, educators, church leaders, business professions, and concern citizens must intervene in the rise of teen violence, teen murders, low graduation rates, and the districts  cohort of dropouts among young urban teens. We should work on common ground to bring this onslaught of mayhem and self destruction by our young boys to a halt.
