About us

We are part of Mankind Project (MKP) USA/International, which is a non-profit, non-religious, non-political group dedicated to create a safer world where men act on their individual and shared responsibility for the future of humanity. We do this by supporting men on a path of emotional maturity, spiritual awareness, and deepening community. In addition to supporting local men's groups, MKP offers the New Warrior Training Adventure, a life-transforming weekend workshop, as well as other training workshops.

The Ventura Open Men's Group meets in-person on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month starting at 7:00 pm. The average attendance is 4-6 men per meeting.

For additional information, please contact the group organizers Bruce Smith at (805) 258-3695 or Dave Knepper at (360) 237-4610.
