The challenge ahead is real. Opportunities in the fields of math and science abound, and African Americans must be positioned to take advantage of them. The Benjamin Banneker Institute seeks to coordinate and synergize the existing community of interest in this effort, and involve all relevant stakeholders.

The Institute will serve as a portal for interaction and exchange, and establish a presence that engages all parties: those who dream for themselves and their children, those who are ready to participate in a solution, and those who are looking for ways to contribute to the effort.

The Banneker Institute is associated with a number of distinguished individuals and initiatives that share our common goal and vision, and we will continue to cultivate current relationships and seek new converts. The moment has arrived. Come and join us!

Whether you’re an: educator, researcher, employer, parent, student, philanthropist, community group or a participant on any level - you’ve come to the right place.
