Men and Women of Promise Conferences expose students to a different way of life through a one-day corporate experience with professionals who listen and help cast a vision for their lives. With this conference, the entire experience is essential: the bus ride to the facility, the speakers, and the professionals who volunteer to facilitate small groups.

The Black Success Center is the economic development hub for Utah's Black Community. The Center hosts several educational programs by the UAACC Charitable Foundation to start and elevate small Black businesses and our Black business professionals. Our focus is to enhance the connection of Utah's Black community to sustain, retain, and further elevate Utah's Black economy.
Recent data shows vast disparities between Black and white communities in Utah. The Black population ranks the lowest in income, homeownership, and business ownership, and the highest percentage in poverty.
To add to these challenges, Utah struggles to retain and grow diversity. The Black population has remained stagnant the last several years. Black professionals who migrate to Utah feel disconnected and struggle to find and feel a community for them. The heightened intensity in race conversations have illuminated a lack of awareness and education of systemic racism.
Since its inception in 2009, the Utah Black Chamber has made significant strides for its community and continues to elevate its impact by curating a visible, accessible, and safe space for everyone. Our goal is to build an environment that welcomes all and builds a sense of trust and community while establishing a bridge to Utah’s non-Black population through partnership, collaboration, education, and awareness.
We envision the Black Success Center to serve as the foundation to establish a Black ecosystem with a talent pipeline for the best opportunities Utah has to offer. Combining this with understanding and awareness will accelerate the progress of closing the racial income gap and lowering the barriers for Black success.
