National Black Child Development Institute(NBCDI) "focus is on achieving positive outcomes for vulnerable children who suffer from the legacies of poverty and racial discrimination.  The organization was launched by the Black Women's Community Development Foundation, whose leadership in the wake of the Civil Rights Movement, was deeply concerned about the unsatisfactory  , conditions faced by families determined to raise healthy black children, by organizing NBCDI as a national advocacy group, they created a unified movement to develop strategies to improve the life circumstances of the Black Child through policy change."

I have also learned that "for 38 years, NBCDI was led by Evelyn K. Moore who got her start as a teacher in the ground breaking Perry Pre-School/High Scope Program, which became the model for Head Start.  She has dedicated her entire professional career to improving out comes for our society's most vulnerable children.  Her leadership was followed by that if renowned  early childhood educator, writer and leader, Carol Brunson Day who led NBCDI from 2007 to 2011.  NBCDI's current resident and CEO is DR. Felicia DeHaney."

NBCDI'S future is about growth and sustain ability, forging new boundaries and promoting strengths based programs and policies that lift up our children in the context of their families, communities and cultures.  
Quote from Evelyn K.Moore,NBCDI President Emeritus, 1972 said that "Quality programes for black children must incorporate factors that ensure esteem and respect for one self and one's hertiage."
