About A²MEND
A²MEND (African American Male Education Network and Development) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the educational success of Black male students. Founded in 2006 by six Black male college administrators, it works to address barriers in higher education and build communities where Black men and other men of color can thrive.
