✦ Synopsis


The authors discuss effective rite of passage (ROP) programs as strength‐based, culturally relevant interventions for African American male adolescents. They also highlight the ethnocultural strengths of this population from a resilience perspective and articulate academic and dispositional outcomes of ROP programs. Recommendations for practice and future research are included.
