OVERVIEW

Guide Right is the national community service and mentoring program of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Since its inception, the objective of Guide Right is to provide leadership and assistance to youth of the communities we serve. It is a year-round program, dedicated to the educational and occupational guidance of young men, primarily inspirational and informational in character.

Since 1992, the purpose of the Guide Right service program has been to place the training, experience and friendly interest of successful men at the disposal of youth needing inspiration and counsel regarding the choice of a life's career, and to arouse the interest of the entire community in the problems of youth as they seek to realize lives of usefulness.

In 2004, the New Brunswick Alumni chapter formally introduced its Kappa Leadership League. The program began with 16 African-American males primarily from Quibbletown Middle School. Under the direction of te chapter polemarch, Bryan Foston and the Guide Right director, C. Alex Graythe foundation for the program was developed. In just under two years the program went from two schools to over ten schools spanning Middlesex and Somerset county middle and high schools. The program focuses on leadership training, community service, mentorship, personal responsibility and most importantly academic enrichment and success. The goal of the program is to mentor students through high school and see that they further their education to receive a college degree.

The New Brunswick Alumni Kappa Leadership League has received several awards for the totality and specturm of the program. In 2007, three years after starting the program, the chapter received the Jay Crosby Award for the best Kappa League program in the Northeastern Province for small alumni chapters. The program received the same award in 2011. The ultimate recognition occurred in 2011 as well. While the fraternity celeberated its centennial in Indianapolis, IN, the NBA Kappa League program was recognized as the National Jay Crobsy Award recipient. Despite these honors, we judge our program on the success of the young men within the program and conitnually work to improve the program to meet the needs of each Kappa Leaguer.
