Future Black Female

Background of the organization

Founded in 2019, Future Black Female (FBF) is a non-profit organization that works to empower Black girls and women between the ages of 16 and 22 through culturally grounded programming, rights-based advocacy, and systems change so they can take charge of their education and career paths as well as their social, political, and civic engagement.

Project description

Funding will allow Future Black Female to convene a cross-sector Diversion Action Table, develop shared referral pathways and response protocols, train justice, education, and community partners, and establish shared data and accountability practices to strengthen coordinated early intervention for at-risk Black youth across Niagara.
