Mentoring Positives / Off the Block Salsa

Exhibitor


The Hook is the Key! Mentoring Positives Inc. (MP) is an innovative, referral-based mentoring program that works directly with kids and families throughout Dane County and its surrounding areas. Founded in 2004 by Will and Becky Green, Mentoring Positives offers a range of positive programs for elementary, middle, and high school-aged youth.

“Off the Block” Salsa is a social enterprise run by Mentoring Positives. The youth involved branded the product “Off the Block” salsa because they saw the project as a way to keep them out of trouble in their neighborhood. The name also represented their hopes of getting  “off their block” in the Darbo-Worthington Park Neighborhood on Madison’s east side.
