Certified Communities

MBK Certification is a process that supports a community to achieve population level impact for boys and young men of color in one or more of the six My Brother’s Keeper (MBK) Milestones.

MBK Certification

Certification is achieved by building a collective impact infrastructure aligned with the MBK Equity Framework, documenting those efforts in the MBK Online Platform and receiving formal approval from MBK Alliance. Each Certified Community maintains their certification by participating in ongoing continuous improvement towards population level impact as a part of the My Brother’s Keeper Alliance Leadership Network.
