- About Me: Since 1975 Concerned Black Men has been providing youth development, health education and adult literacy services to African American children and their families in disadvantaged communities. Through our network of affiliate chapters located in 32 U.S. cities, including Pretoria, South Africa. With an experienced and credentialed staff located in Washington, DC, CBM conducts evidenced-based best practice[s] programs that are making a difference in the lives of the those we serve.
A male services organization that proudly wears its grass roots heritage, CBM was founded in 1975 when several Philadelphia police officers sponsored social events for kids at-risk to gang violence. The vision of CBM’s founding members has expanded to include children and their parents nationwide, but the philosophy of men offering themselves as positive role models to children continues to remain CBM’s mission.
