Men on the Move

Program Overview

The Christopher A. Pugh Center for Men provides computer information technology training, career readiness instruction and support, wraparound case management, individualized job-based mentoring and job placement services for men who are at risk. The Christopher A. Pugh Center for Men is committed to breaking the intergenerational cycle of poverty, mental health, and incarceration; forging new pathways for access to economic opportunity for those who have traditionally been denied that access. These include:

● Justice-impacted males (incarcerated, formerly incarcerated, on probation/parole)
● Opportunity Youth (boys between the ages of 16 and 24 who are neither employed nor enrolled in school)
● Youth specifically young boys currently or formerly involved in the juvenile justice system
●Male Veterans
● Homeless Men
● Other system-involved males (TANF, SNAP, WIC recipients)

Men are essential to a healthy and vibrant society. Men who are positively engaged in the lives of their children help our state's youth to grow into socially and emotionally healthy adults who can thrive and lead productive lives. Milestone of TN along with the Christopher A. Pugh Center for Men seeks to support programs and organizations within Tennessee and the surrounding areas through education, technology and grant opportunities.
