The Crisis in the Black CommUnity Conference is July 8-9, 2022, and is being hosted by Morgan State University in partnership with the Caucus of African American Leaders, Maryland State NAACP Conference, and the Black Caucus Foundation.

MORE ABOUT THE EVENT:
The purpose of this event is to accelerate the process to redefine, reclaim, repurpose, and reinvest in our Black CommUnities. The goal is to engage in solution-oriented dialogue with CommUnity leaders like you throughout the great state of Maryland. We will not only discuss common challenges and issues within the Black CommUnity but will also develop viable solutions to overcome these issues.
This two-day conference will focus on topics surrounding the areas of civic engagement, voting rights, economics, education, criminal justice, environmental justice, and more! It is our aim to educate, inform, and organize our CommUnity on issues that have a deleterious impact on people of color; thereby creating a path forward.
This conference is a means to promote awareness and fruitful conversations for all in attendance. We hope to build momentous support and resources to provide viable, long-lasting solutions to those challenges which are significant and not constructive to the development and growth of the Black CommUnity.
