National Black Child Development Institute

National Black Child Development Institute fights for the creation of an equitable and just future for Black children and families. It does this by mobilizing communities and igniting movements to foster a sense of community and belonging where Black children feel supported and valued. NBCDI delivers to Black communities culturally relevant resources on family engagement, federal and state policy issues, early-childhood education, early literacy, and health and wellness. Our grant supports NBCDI as it increases the impact of its Family Empowerment Program, which equips Black families with the knowledge, tools, and skills needed to foster their children’s learning and development.
