Our Mission:
Educate+
Empower.
We are dedicated to advocating for the well-being, empowerment, and future success of Black children and families.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create a space that acknowledges the unique experiences of Black children, addresses the challenges they may face, and to work towards creating a more just and equitable environment for them to thrive.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every Black child has the opportunity to grow up in a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment. Through our advocacy efforts, community partnerships, and educational initiatives, we aim to break down systemic barriers and ensure that Black children have access to the same opportunities and resources as their peers.
Community Support
We provide a platform for Black families, caregivers, and community members to share their stories, experiences, and insights. By fostering a sense of community and connection, we aim to create a supportive network that uplifts and empowers one another.
Cultural Competence
Culturally competent care is essential in helping systems. By understanding and respecting the unique cultural backgrounds of Black children and families, we can create an environment where they feel valued, heard, and understood.
Educational Resources
Our website offers a wealth of educational resources, articles, and guides addressing various aspects of Black child welfare. We cover topics ranging from cultural competence in the child welfare system to understanding the impact of systemic racism on Black families.
Addressing Disparities
Black children are disproportionately represented in the child welfare system. We believe that it's crucial to address these disparities and work towards a more equitable system that truly serves the best interests of Black children and families.
Our Team
We are a dedicated and compassionate team united by a shared vision – to uplift and empower black children and families. Our diverse team brings together a wealth of experience, expertise, and unwavering commitment to making a positive difference in the lives of those we serve.
