Black Men Teach (www.blackmenteachtc.org) recruits, prepares places, and supports retention of Black male teachers in Twin Cities elementary classrooms, addressing the challenges of recruiting and retaining Black male educators.  Students learn more when taught by a teacher of the same color and ethnicity and show dramatically different outcomes in drop out rates and academic achievement. 

Black Men Teach received a DECISION SUPPORT project to develop a framework to analyze and project program, staff and other organizational needs and expenses to support growth and inform annual business and fundraising plans.
