About US
North Carolina Black Alliance (NCBA), a 501(c)(3), works to enhance the well-being and advancement of Black communities through systemic policy change, economic empowerment and youth and leadership development. As an intergovernmental organization uniting legislators, municipal officials, county commissioners, school board members and community activists, we collaborate with strategic partners to amplify collective impact and foster intentional, meaningful engagement with Black constituencies across North Carolina.
NCBA envisions a future where comprehensive, state-level policy advancements prioritize the health, well-being and prosperity of Black communities, fostering equity, justice and opportunity for all. By implementing affirmative, forward-thinking strategies, NCBA ensures that policy change is not just aspirational but actionable, economic empowerment is sustained and generational, and leadership development creates a pipeline for lasting systemic impact.

Core Programs
Youth Voter Engagement
Our Youth Voter Engagement program partners with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to mobilize young voters of color and provide issue education. Our engagement strategies included planning HBCU Think Tanks and parties at each polling site of our partner HBCUs.
Polling
Annually we launch an intentional campaign to poll African American voters in an effort to determine their position on key issues and policies. The results are then shared with community stakeholders to guide strategies and voter education conversations.
And Beyond Series
The And Beyond series are regional convenings coordinated in collaboration with our many partners. The objective is to focus on developing systemic changes to address policy, economic, educational and healthcare inequities in our communities. This effort is ongoing and a key feature of future organizing efforts sponsored by the NC Black Alliance.
NC Black Summit
The NC Black Summit provides a platform for attendees to engage in thoughtful conversations regarding leadership, infrastructure and economic development opportunities that will enhance local communities. This two-day conference attracts elected officials, community advocates and grassroots organizations who are interested in staying engaged and successful solutions to community challenges.
