In keeping with the fraternity’s founder’s contribution to academic excellence in the sciences, the program has graduated dozens of young men who have gone on to attend four-year colleges and universities.  The gentlemen of the Theta Pi chapter also mentor young men in the area of science, technology, engineering, and math.  In 2019, our Omega Gents won first place in both Senior and Junior divisions of the Solano County Science and Engineering Fair.

The program includes various activities that support the cardinal principles of brotherhood, academics, determinations, empowerment. Activities include:
 

• Educational Workshops              

• College Preparatory Programs

• Community Service Projects        

• National College Tours

• Career Exposure Outings                   

• Manhood Development Workshops

• Rites of Passage                          

• Big Brother Mentorship Pairing

• Social & Recreational Outings

Our formal academic program occurs during the traditional academic year, from September to June.  The official commencement for the program year is the Annual Youth Mentoring Camping Trip, which is held in conjunction with other Northern California Chapters of Omega Psi Phi that sponsor youth mentoring programs.

Conclusion

Young men who participate in the Omega Gents program make life impacting memories and build relationships with accomplished men from their community; that is essential to their long-term success.  Omega Gents develop academically, socially and emotionally. They grow through various support services and exposure to positive new experiences that reinforce critical life skills. Omega Gents develop a sense of community by participating in a wide range of service projects.  They build the confidence necessary to visualize, believe, and pursue their dreams. Finally, Omega Gents complete the program with a network of peers and friends to provide continued support.
