We seek to work together with other affiliate organizations and like minded individuals that want to make our vision into a reality.
In addition, this organization will provide adequate social services to the urban poor living on the Westside of Chicago. This organization is based on Mr. Emmanuel Barbee's new book "The Solution For Black America: Reclaiming, Rebuilding and Restoring The Urban Ghettos In America." Mr. Barbee is the founder and CEO of The Grass Roots Community Activist Corporation.

We will raise our students educational test scores with effectiveness and efficiency.
We will also attempt to decrease the unemployment rate of neighborhood residents by forty percent within five years. We will attempt to improve the economic and cultural conditions of the community.
