Founder, Mr. Mervin W. January

Our mission is to assist youth and young adults as they transition from adolescence into adulthood. This includes critical decisions about education, employment, finances, relationships, and other life events. The overall goal is to promulgate a pathway for success during the course of life!

Our vision is to provide mentorship, life-skills training, and resourceful tools to construct a productive lifecycle. The desired outcome will yield economic security, social equity, mental toughness, physical awareness, and beneficial relationships.

Mr. Mervin January created this petition in 2019. His prayer and hope is to lessen the traumatizing agony experienced by the 23 million+ families across the U.S.A. This petition is a Clarion Call for legislative change! Parental alienating behaviors must be acknowledged in America as it is in other parts of the world. We need legislation which not only acknowledges its existence, but firmly and clearly legislates against it. Once passed using legislative measures, the fabric of our broken parent-child relationships can start to mend in a fresh new way. So far, there have been millions of people sitting on the sidelines who have decided to do nothing. If you are reading this, then that makes you a difference maker. Do “YOU” desire to become a part of the solution? Click below and sign the Petition! Thanks in advance for your help. (In 2023, we surpassed 3,000 signatures so far...)
