Has "raps" and "MIs" and lots of other stuff. Sounds very much like slightly remodeled Straight Inc. Does anybody know whether there is a further connection?
Example:
1. Be honest, authentic, and real.
...
5. Maintain strict confidentiality of everything discussed in group. “What is seen here, what is heard here, remains here!”
...
9. Say “I love you _____” after each person is finished relating.
...
12. Do not be defensive. While being spoken to, one may not respond to defend him/herself or return confrontation to the person speaking.
13. If one needs to leave the group for any reason, he/she must ask permission from the staff in charge of the group session.
14. Stand when speaking, relating, or being related to. During general raps, one must stand while relating. One must also stand when someone is being given feedback or being related to. Standing is not necessary during teaching raps.
Clients are expected to give back. This includes watching out for one’s brothers and sisters. It also includes the initiative of upper-phasers to provide accountability for lower-phasers.
and lots and lots more
