Our children are the promise of the future; our hope for a better tomorrow.

To give our future the chance it deserves, NBCDI advances a multi-faceted agenda to promote and protect the well-being of all African American children. NBCDI’s wide range of programs respond to the necessity to replace the one-size fits-all, deficit-oriented paradigm with initiatives that serve children based on their strengths and needs. Our programs support children and families in the areas of early care and education, health, parenting, education, and child welfare. NBCDI’s affiliate chapters, composed of dedicated volunteers, are not only reaching out to African American children; they’re connecting with them in ways that make a difference. NBCDI also serves as a resource to people who are professionally and personally committed to children and families.

We still have miles to go and promises to keep – and we hope we can count on your support today to help us improve and advance the quality of life for our children, our families and our communities.

Dr. Felicia DeHaney
President, NBCDI
