Abstract
Using the philosophy of Ubuntu (I am because we are), a grant-funded group for African American, inner-city youth between the ages of 14 and 18 was implemented and studied. Five group members participated in the six-week blended model group intervention that culminated in an agreed-upon social justice project. During sessions, participants discussed issues in five main areas: school, home, community, friendships, and internal issues. Through an advocacy-oriented and culture-centered lens, the format of the six-week group is provided along with recommendations for school counselors and mental health counselors working with African American adolescents in under-resourced communities.
