Since its organization and revitalization in February 1989, the National Association of Black Accountants, Inc. Richmond Chapter has been dedicated to uniting accountants, accounting students, and business professionals who share a commitment to excellence and community advancement in Richmond, VA. Rooted in the principle of "Lifting As We Climb," NABA Richmond serves as a vital community resource for black professionals navigating the accounting and finance industries. The chapter brings together professional members and student chapters across Virginia, fostering cooperative relationships among peers while advancing the interests of current and prospective minority accounting professionals. NABA Richmond distinguishes itself through its focus on personal enrichment and community service, offering social activities and volunteer opportunities that strengthen both individual members and the broader Richmond community. The organization recognizes that professional success extends beyond individual achievement—it encompasses building leaders who shape the future of the accounting and finance professions while supporting the next generation of minority students entering these fields. By combining professional development with genuine community connection, NABA Richmond creates an environment where members can grow their careers while contributing meaningfully to their profession and community. The chapter's comprehensive approach to member support includes mentorship programs, networking events, and collaborative partnerships that reflect its core mission of representing and advancing the interests of black professionals in accounting and related business fields throughout the Richmond area.
Founded in Richmond, Virginia in 1942, the Old Dominion Bar Association emerged from a pivotal moment of civil rights advocacy when attorney Frederic Charles Carter refused to be segregated in the Virginia Supreme Court law library. What began as a response to discrimination has evolved into one of the nation's premier African-American bar associations, dedicated to the mission of being "Virginia's Advocates for Equal Justice." For over 80 years, ODBA has served as a vital community for African-American attorneys and lawyers of color, providing continuity of leadership and support on issues of particular importance to underrepresented populations in the legal profession. The organization's legacy includes significant achievements in judicial appointments, with ODBA members working diligently to ensure African-American lawyers received consideration for judgeships throughout Virginia. Today, the association continues addressing the civil rights, disenfranchisement, and criminal justice issues that inspired its founders, recognizing that the work of equal justice remains incomplete. ODBA's membership represents a diverse community of legal professionals committed to professional growth, scholarship, and meaningful activism. The organization actively engages its members through annual conferences, networking events, and collaborative programming with other affinity bar associations. By joining ODBA, attorneys become part of a historic movement rooted in dignity, professional excellence, and the unwavering pursuit of equal justice for all Virginians.
Side by Side, based in Richmond, Virginia, is a community-driven organization with over three decades of dedicated service to LGBTQ+ youth. Founded in 1991 as the Richmond Organization for Sexual Minority Youth (ROSMY) and rebranded in 2016, Side by Side has established itself as a national leader in youth-centered advocacy and support. The organization is built on four core strategic priorities: a public commitment to Black LGBTQ+ youth flourishing, creating vibrant and diverse communities through partnership and mutual support, maintaining a youth-centered approach to all decision-making, and serving as a powerful voice for LGBTQ+ community education and progress. What distinguishes Side by Side is its deep commitment to intersectionality and racial equity, recognizing the complete humanity of every young person it serves while actively working to dismantle systems of racial inequity. The organization celebrates a rich history of firsts—from offering the first college scholarship for LGBTQ+ youth in 1996 to hosting groundbreaking alternative proms and launching innovative programs like its Host Home initiative for homeless young adults. Side by Side's impact extends throughout Virginia's LGBTQ+ community, with support groups spanning from Richmond to Charlottesville and training programs reaching schools and organizations across the Commonwealth. By listening to youth voices, creating affirming spaces, and building long-term relationships within Black communities, Side by Side continues its tradition of supporting LGBTQ+ youth to define themselves and flourish in a more equitable future.
