Our Vision is that the Kent Black Action Commission is highly successful in implementing its overall work plan and as a result the City of Kent and all of South King County will be held up as a bright beacon of accomplishment in the areas of social and economic justice. And the Black community, as well as the community-at-large is reaping the benefits of an improved quality of life that takes full advantage of the richness of our diversity.
We are the Kent Black Action Commission (KBAC) and our mission is to improve and promote the social, economic, political, spiritual and educational conditions of the Black Community in Kent, Washington and the South King County area.
Diversity – Although our focus is primarily on issues that affect the Black Community, we invite everyone to come and see what KBAC is about and participate in its activities. Our membership boasts of people of diverse cultural, religious, economic, and educational backgrounds all with a common interest of enhancing our life in South King County.
