Mission Statement

The Knox Project was founded in January of 2018, but the research and development of the Knox Project began several years before the initial establishment date. In 2013, Mr. Lenell Knox envisioned a program that could help solve the plethora of issues between police officers and minority youth and help black and brown teens make better decisions here in the city of Chicago.

After years of seeing good kids making bad choices, the goal and mission for Mr. Knox became obvious.

To do the best that we can to steer them in the right direction and give them the un-watered-down truth about the consequences of their actions. This is the dedicated passion that Mr. Knox and his team have, and therefore the Knox Project was constructed around these parameters.
