- Mission & Vision -
The Concerned Black Men of Prince George's County (CBMPGC) works to create a county where:
- Every child has in his or her life a responsible caring adult;
- After-school and summer enrichment programs are available to all young people, not just for children of the wealthy;
- Youths are empowered to change their lives by receiving appropriate and accurate information on health, social and community issues;
- Quality public education is our County's highest priority;
- Teenage parents are the exception, not the norm.
- CBM History -
Concerned Black Men (CBM) was founded in 1975 when several Philadelphia police officers sponsored social events for kids at risk to gang violence.
CBM's vision was to fill the void of positive black male role models in many communities by providing mentors and programs that affirmed the care and discipline that all youth need, while providing opportunities for academic and career enrichment.
While the vision of CBM's founding members has expanded to include children and their parents nationwide, the philosophy of men offering themselves as positive role models to children has remained CBM's mission for more than 30 years.
