Ashanti Branch has over 20 years of experience in building healthy relationships in schools — he’s a pioneer in reforming education, youth mental health, and traditional masculinity. He is the Founder and Executive Director of the Ever Forward Club, a non-profit organization that takes students who are disengaged and dropping out to 100% graduation rates, 90% college enrollment, and 0% incarceration, using tools like the Taking Off the Mask workshop. Ashanti received the 2023 US Surgeon General’s Medallion (the highest honor a civilian can receive from the Surgeon General).
Trigger warning: In this episode, we talk about systemic challenges inherent to working within the US public education system and youth mental health issues.
