Summary:

CAD sponsors programs designed to empower African-American communities through a greater sense of self-awareness so they can be successful in life. Our primary target group is multi-gender community youth. These programs focus on instilling self-respect, self-discipline, and self-determination. The end result will reflect a reduction in crime, drug addiction, and inter-racial violence. We provide youth summer programs, seminars, workshops, academic programs, sporting teams and events, summer camps, and community center programs.
