Our programs are strategically designed to provide school-based/community-based services and wraparound supports to children, youth, and families to meet their pressing social needs.

We also inspire others to serve a higher purpose in helping to improve human conditions in becoming servant leaders in their homes, neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces.
Therefore, Royal Heirs takes a holistic approach to life and education in delivering high-quality, 21st Century leadership and enrichment programs to improve at-risk students' and families' outcomes. Our services include education and training, mentoring programs, community leadership programs, service learning, lifestyle coaching, career exploration, and entrepreneurial development for at-risk, disadvantaged children/youth and adults. Overall, Royal Heirs are people builders who train, educate, empower, and equip others with the tools and knowledge needed to rise above their life situations and circumstances.
