The National Black Child Development Institute was brought to life by the Black Women's Community Development Foundation. In 1970, the organization was started and they began to build a voice to improve the lives of African American children through policy changes. Their mission is to improve and advance the lives of black children and their families through education and advocacy. Their mission is carried out by giving information out that directly work with children and providing services throughout the nation. Throughout the years, millions of children have benefited from the program. The organization works to expand the following core program areas: Love to Read, the Parent Empowerment Program, African American Parents Project and Spark, Entering the College Zone, and the National Affiliate Network.
The NBBCDI received $300,000 from WalMart Foundation to promote healthy eating among families. The funds will promote nutrition to black families.
I subscribed to receive newsletters from NBBCDI. I am excited to learn more about this organization.
