About All Kings
All Kings serves men seeking emotional healing, with a deliberate commitment to accessibility for men impacted by the criminal legal system and young men at risk.
The Challenge
For generations, we have inherited and reinforced a damaging view of manhood—one that teaches that vulnerability is weakness, empathy is soft, and emotional expression is unmanly. This stigma has left generations of men distanced from compassion and accountability, resulting in isolation, harm, and unresolved trauma.
The cycle continues, cutting men off from themselves, their families, and their communities. The stakes are stark: suicide is a leading cause of death for men under 35, and young men caught in the system often face futures where their potential is sidelined by incarceration. The real loss—both human and societal—is immeasurable, and when we fail to support men, the ripple effects are felt for generations.
Our Solution
We believe the greatest challenge facing all men is a disconnection from himself and from others.
To heal the wounds of isolation, we create space for men to come together as they are: across ages, backgrounds, identities, and life experiences. Through weekend retreats, weekly circles, and leadership development, we support one another in doing the slow, honest work of growth—building lives rooted in integrity and purpose.
We partner with local reentry and community organizations to walk alongside returning citizens. What we offer is simple and rare: a community where a man doesn't have to hide. A place where his pain, his power, and his possibility are all welcome.
As men move through the work, they are invited to step more fully into it—becoming facilitators, then circle keepers, then anchors of support in their own communities. Not because they've been given a title, but because they've done the work because they have done the work and can now offer it to others.
Our Approach
Our work is holistic, relational, and peer-led.
In our circles every man is an equal participant. We learn empowerment and healing techniques that draw on contemporary advancements in transformative justice, somatic awareness, and “rites of passage” experiences.
Through weekend retreats, weekly circles, leadership trainings and a network of mutual support, we help men build lives of purpose and connection. Some of us have lived experience with the criminal legal system. Some of us do not.
All of us have medicine to bring.
All Kings operates through a four-tier model. Movement across tiers is supported, not required.
Tier 1 | Initiation: Nature & City Quest: The Quest is a three-day retreat that invites men to review their lives through a different lens. The retreat is trauma-informed, intergenerational, and peer-led, supported by trained facilitators, elders, and mentors who model vulnerability, accountability, and compassion.
Tier 2 | Development: Integration circle, Community circles, & All Kings Online (AKO). The work continues in Circles. These groups, led by both trained and peer co-facilitators help participants process, deepen, and embody the healing, insight, and behavioral change sparked by the Quest —within the context of their everyday lives.
Tier 3 | Leadership: External services facilitator trainings, Circle facilitator trainings (CFT) , Carpet work cycle. Through this living pipeline, We develops facilitators who are not just credible messengers, but embodied leaders—men whose presence transforms the spaces they enter.
Tier 4 | Community Impact: Expanding growth and outreach opportunities for initiated members through Quest retreat facilitation, leading community spaces, and mentoring within external service partnerships. The vision for the work is for it to be accessible to our communities and environments. This is where we bring the work into the world and personal transformation becomes collective impact.
