BPN is a 501C3 organization focused on helping career and business professionals create pathways for career opportunities and financial growth. We are guided in three clear objectives: (1) increase the number of our professionals in leadership roles and high-skilled roles, (2) assist our small business owners’ within the network to create high-skilled roles and match them to talent; and (3) improve the financial education of all our professionals to achieve and maintain financial security for generations.
Yes, we don’t discriminate. We mean it. We operate much like a women-only organization. While men are welcomed, the focus will remain on the women and their issues. Same applies with us. We welcome all people and need all the support to shrink the achievement gap and provide greater access for black professionals.
There are a number of ways to support and get value from BPN.
