What is the W.O.N. Project?
The W.O.N. (Watching Our Neighborhoods) Project is
a comprehensive strategic revitalization plan created
and written by Daron Barker and James Hill of Ja-Barenard
Construction Company to foster an environment that is
conducive to growth, health, safety and prosperity throughout
our neighborhoods and communities. The Generation S.N.A.P.
campaign is a component of the W.O.N. Project.

Are We Being Lied To?
Yes. Psychomedia Perpetrator Disorder is a term coined
by Professor Alfred "Coach" Powell to describe
the process of media copycatting that takes place in
the nation’s communities when its members imitate
what they see and hear in the media. Over time, if nothing
is done to address these misconceptions, the misinformation
becomes perceived and accepted as legitimate and the
lies begin to sound like the truth. It is out of this
environment that the need for balance grew and Professor
Powell’s book Hip Hop Hypocrisy: When Lies
Sound Like the Truth was born.
The campaign takes a bold step at reversing this negative
occurrence by systematically returning the people back
to responsibility and accountability. This can be achieved
through re-socialization ignited by positive breakthrough
methods devised by Parentpoints, Inc. and the HMC Parentpoints
Consulting Service. This will stimulate natural analytical
processes (S.N.A.P.) to unlock hidden human potential
and achieve success.

What Do You Mean by Generation NAP?
Nap: 1 : to sleep briefly especially during the day
: DOZE; 2 : to be off guard.
Generation Nap is a term established to describe a generation
of people lacking the wisdom necessary to achieve balance
through discipline and order. They lack this wisdom
because somewhere in the breakdown of family and community
order, they missed key instruction that before this
breakdown would have been prescribed by the elders of
the community. Generation refers to the people, whatever
the age, who are affected, and Nap refers to the breakdown
itself. As history and our current social condition
shows us, we are most vulnerable when we are caught
off guard.
We have a growing number of teenagers and young adults
with parents and grandparents who are 40 years of age
or younger; almost half of what it would ordinarily
be. Imagine a timeline that plots the lives of three
generations. See how it overlaps? This overlap illustrates
the reduced span of wisdom that is generated from age
and experience, and is usually passed down from one
generation to the next.
We now have adults who act like teenagers, and grandparents
who act like young adults in their early to mid 20’s.
This gives life to a new generation of babies having
babies. The whole Nap process begins again, moving us
further and further away from the natural or divine
order of things. This process leaves us with a class
of people who are regressing from the advanced level
of human evolution to a more primitive being that is
inclined to avoid natural thought and respond more by
pure animal instinct, merely reacting and not considering
the consequences of their actions.

What is S.N.A.P.?
S.N.A.P. is a campaign designed to rouse us from the
stigma of Generation Nap and put us back on guard and
back in control of ourselves, our families, our neighborhoods
and our communities. This active and intensive movement
will restore order and Stimulate Natural Analytical
Processes in a S.N.A.P.
Spearheaded by HMC Parentpoints and Parentpoints, Inc,
this campaign uses input from partner organizations
and focus groups across the country to address the critical
need to educate parents, families, schools and churches
about how to guide our community members toward actively
restoring an environment of beneficial family and community
values. Phase One lays the groundwork by re-introducing
communities to value-oriented concepts through mass
communication, such as radio and media. Phase Two will
draw on the energy and excitement of Phase One and begin
the educational process that will invoke lasting positive
change in the black communities.
S.N.A.P. reaches out to the individuals that make up
the community, acknowledging that individual growth
positively impacts the family; family growth positively
impacts the community; community growth positively impacts
the city, and so forth. Step by step, person by person,
we begin to revese the negative impact of the past and
restore balance.
