About SAAM
The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation launched the State of the African-American Male (SAAM) initiative in 2003, under the leadership of Rep. Danny Davis, to take a proactive stance in determining policy initiatives to facilitate the economic and social well being, and wellness of Black men in the United States. SAAM was conceived and implemented as a regional exercise, with conferences taking place in Washington D.C., Houston, Miami, Chicago, Detroit, Memphis, Atlanta, Los Angeles, New York, Oakland and the Virgin Islands, under the leadership of CBC members representing those areas. The theme of SAAM is “Family, Spirituality, Education and Community.”
