The “Smart’n Up” Black Male Summit is a Community-based motivational and educational summit designed to address the unique needs of Black men and boys. This is an opportunity to expose young Black males to empowering information, positive role models, potential mentors and critical resources to help them survive and succeed in an adverse society.

We do not sugar coat our subject matter at the Black Male Summit. Our message is strong. Our workshops include presentations about Entrepreneurship, Building Confidence, Stop the Violence, among other critical topics.

While the event is named the Black Male Summit, we extend a warm welcome to ALL youth, regardless of their gender, race, ethnicity, or background! Over the years, our summit has seen attendance from individuals of various races and genders. We recognize that young people from diverse backgrounds often encounter similar challenges, including poverty, discrimination, violence, limited opportunities and resources, low self-esteem, and peer pressure. Our goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where attendees can share their experiences, learn from one another, and collaboratively work towards overcoming these obstacles. The target age group is 12 years and older. However, anyone (including women) are welcome to attend.
