Close to 200 community members from all backgrounds gathered at Jackson Community College in May for African American Male Summit, detailing the plight of African American males in today’s society.  A report on that event is now available from JCC.

The event was designed to help identify barriers and provide solutions so that African American males may find more success. The report offers highlights and overviews from the event, as well as detailed concerns and recommendations from the three key areas explored, education, family role and penal system.
