CBM CARES® National Mentoring Initiative

Concerned Black Men (CBM) has launched its CBM CARES® Mentoring campaign to inspire African American men to become role models and proactively participate in the lives of African American children. Citing statistics that assert that more than 60% of black children are growing up in father absent households with a similar amount dropping out of high school, coupled with the fact that a high percentage of high school drop-outs are at risk to becoming incarcerated, CBM believes that involving African American men to mentor our youth is an imperative.
