2019 campaign for black male achievement analysis

The Campaign for Black Male Achievement (CBMA) sought to have a broader understanding of its organizational network members and the current state of those network members’ Black male achievement work. CBMA’s network members within Promise of Place cities played an important role in the field. In summer of 2019, Equivolve Consulting and the CBMA membership team collaborated to conduct secondary research on CBMA’s network members in two cities.

The first report in this two-part series described the work of CBMA’s members in Detroit and Louisville, including their annual budgets and whether they were Black led. It also mapped and described the BMA assets in each city – CBMA fellows, funders, and field leader organizations. The second and final report in the series provided a more detailed snapshot of the organization’s work in Detroit and opportunities for advancing BMA work across its Detroit network.
