Child Support

It is no secret that today's African American family unit suffers greatly from a lack of positive male influences.  Single mother households are unfortunately all too commonplace.  Compounding the father-child relationship is the poor relationship between mother and father.  With derogatives like, "baby-mamma-drama", and "baby-daddy", firmly entrenched in the black family vocabulary, children undoubtedly form negative connotations of their parents love for each other, and subsequently, their love for them!

Sick Around America (Learn More)

The documentary “Sick around America” is a very interesting video that talks about the number one crisis in America, “Healthcare”.  It explores things such as job benefits in the healthcare system, the patient's hospital expenses, the patients' difficult decisions on how to pay off their bills. The medical expenses have gotten really expensive and some people do not have insurance because they cannot afford it, or they do not qualify for the insurance through their employers. This medical crisis has even driven people into filing bankruptcy.
