For more than a decade, Michael Gurian has joined with other leaders to call on three different Presidents to create a White House Commission on Boys and Men.  In Saving Our Sons and other Gurian publications he has described the political headwinds facing this potential commission.  To most people in the world it should be obvious–boys and men need research and resources just like girls and women do–but in politics, the obvious can become the impossible.

The Global Initiative for Boys and Men led by educator Sean Kellman, a resident of California, has begun an effort to create a California Commission on Boys and Men.  A new report has just been published by Sean and GIBM that shows why the obvious should, in every state, become the law.  Please read the powerful new report here:  https://www.gibm.us/global-initiative-for-boys-men-report-on-the-need-for-a-ccsbm.  Let us hope every state government will decide to start a similar commission.
