To serve through various community service projects and initiatives to help elevate our communities.
The CBM Network framework explains what is needed to help collegiate African-American males persist towards degree completion and become marketable for employers.
The framework is informed around qualitative and quantitative research. The CBM Network understands the role every entity plays and empowers individuals to be active participants to achieve the overall mission of the organization.
We accomplish this through:
Direct Service
Providing cohort-style personal, professional, and leadership development to collegiate Black men through the ONYX25 Recognition & Leadership program.
Indirect Service
Supporting colleges/universities, nonprofits, and other corporate entities who support Black men.
Mentoring students to become leaders on their respective campuses (and beyond)
Students will develop and practice their leadership through various initiatives created by and for their peers.
Monitoring student retention, persistence, and graduation rates
We guide our students through the completion of a comprehensive 4-year program with specific and measurable milestones based on our 5 major areas:
Professional Mentoring
Leadership Development
Engagement
Academics
Service
