Are you and your organization interested in joining your local MBK Community or looking to start a new MBK Community in your city or state? Register today to learn more about becoming part of the MBK Leadership Network.
What is the MBK Leadership Network?
The MBK Leadership Network is a nationwide collective of backbone leads who are actively working to create meaningful change across the 6 MBK Milestones and engaging with the rest of the network for shared learning, regional and national collaborations, and support in the ongoing certification process.
Who can join the MBK Leadership Network?
Organizations that have the capacity and desire to become a designated backbone lead for their MBK Community are eligible to join the MBK Leadership Network. A backbone organization must be a designated community-based organization, public/private partnership, a governmental-appointed agency, or tribal designated entity. There can only be one MBK backbone organization in an MBK Community. To learn more about building a backbone organization, watch our video below.
