Mission
The mission of the Concerned Black Men of Calvert County Inc. is to provide a holistic approach to services which support and strengthen the African-American family, and which specifically targets African-American youth. To establish a concerned male presence within the community with respect to positive role models and exposure to social cultural, educational, spiritual, business, and community linkages.
Our History
The Concerned Black Men of Calvert County Inc. (CBMCC) came into existence in 1995 following an informal discussion held by African-American men in the county. The Concerned Black Men of Calvert County Inc. was granted its charter at the CBM national conference. The CBMCC boasts a membership composed of men from all walks of life. These men are dedicated to the betterment of their community through mentoring and development of programs that bolster the self-esteem and education of youth.
The National Organization of the Concerned Black Men was founded in 1975 by five Philadelphia African-American policemen. The CBM concept has grown from those five men to more than 300 men nationwide, distributed among 14 chapters. In 1985, CBM was the only African-American organization in the U.S. to receive the prestigious “Volunteer Action Award,” granted by the President of the United States, Ronald Reagan.
