Congressman Clyburn
PlayPlay

Two native South Carolinians and pioneers in the Black community, Harvey Gantt, the first Black Mayor of Charlotte, and the honorable South Carolina District 6 Congressman James Clyburn, engaged in a fireside chat on Tuesday night at First Baptist West Church in West Charlotte.

Clyburn discussed his latest book, ‘The First Eight’. He also addressed South Carolina’s early voting on Tuesday and shared his thoughts on the state Senate’s rejection of President Trump’s campaign to redraw South Carolina’s congressional map. Senator Clyburn has been in office for more than 30 years and the redrawn congressional map, if passed, could have cost the lawmaker his seat. He is the ninth Black South Carolinian to serve.

The Urban League of the Central Carolinas has key initiatives that benefit our community. The Empowering Fathers Program (EFP) is designed to support non-custodial parents—primarily fathers, who are connected to Mecklenburg County Child Support Services and may be facing barriers related to employment, co-parenting, emotional wellness, workforce readiness, system navigation, and family stability.

The program intentionally serves fathers who meet the following criteria:

  • Desire to become more engaged in the lives of their children
  • Need workforce development support and economic mobility opportunities
  • Require assistance navigating child support, courts, employment systems, or community resources
  • Are seeking emotional intelligence development and healthy relationship skills
  • Have experienced trauma, incarceration, disconnection, or systemic barriers
  • Want to improve co-parenting relationships and family stability
