HELP FOR MEN

"MeToo" sexual abuse, increases in alcohol and drug addiction, 

hate crimes, gang violence, mass shootings, fatherless children, suicide...


After every mass shooting, within three days, it is business-as-usual.  

Many men are really hurting, and they turn around and hurt other people. This is a program for organizations who help families and communities. 

It is a workshop to help young and older men have a much better life.

Please let organizations know about this program.  

You will be saving many lives.

HELP FOR MEN WHO ARE HURT, ANGRY, SAD OR LONELY

Sponsored by organizations and individuals who are helpful to families and communities.

  • We are all shocked each time another young or older man kills people in a school, office or the community. 
  • In reality, mass shootings drive headlines and political responses, but they comprise only 2 percent of gun deaths
  • Every year in our country, a firearm is used in nearly 500,000 crimes, resulting in the deaths and injuries of more than 110,000 people. 
  • I estimate men commit at least 95% of these crimes.
  • Each year, almost 45,000 Americans die by suicide. 
  • Men die by suicide 3.5 times more than women. 
  • 35,000 men a year take their lives because they are hurt, angry, sad or lonely, or with no community resources to help them find solutions to their problems.  
  • About 20 veterans a day (7,300 per year) across the country take their own lives, with about 97 percent of suicides of veterans being men in states that reported gender.   


THE PROBLEM:
Contributing factors to men committing harm to others or themselves: 

  1. Not in a healthy, loving relationship with a significant other to be comforted  and encouraged. 
  2. Not having healthy, compassionate friends to be able to communicate setbacks, disappointments and serious losses.
  3. Unable to voice his feelings and needs. 
  4. Isolated and feeling lonely or disconnected from others and society. 
  5. Feeling resentful or humiliated and wanting to seek revenge.
  6. Having access to guns. 
  7. Having experience using guns.
  8. Not valuing other’s feelings and needs.
  9. Not wishing to continue to live to seek to solve problems, and to live peacefully and happily with others.
  10. Confused, negative, delusional thinking.
