WHAT YOU CAN USE TODAY
Use NBWSAA’s public resources to explore Black-owned businesses, plan household and business priorities, find training and support information, and learn together across generations. Start with one useful task, then follow its guide or provider route.
Explore the current resource catalog, join the free Community, or send a question or community idea. Protected free Griot stories and Pencils Episodes 2–5 use a separate free Reader account.
Still in development: facilitated cohorts, expanded leadership and organizing support, custom services and NBWSAA-hosted programs. These require confirmed capacity, qualified providers where needed, safeguards and approval before opening. Paid membership enrollment remains closed.
Compare membership learning packages and included benefits on our Memberships & Benefits page. Recording paid membership interest collects no payment and activates no paid benefits.
PUT THE RESOURCES TO WORK
Plan: work through a money, time, business or ownership-planning guide in your own private copy. Learn: explore practical learning, history and The Pencils with your family. Connect: browse businesses, submit a listing for review, share a community need or express voluntary Builder interest. These current routes give you a starting point; provider eligibility, inquiry responses, listings and future roles remain subject to their own requirements and review.
