ABOUT US

Priority Africa Network (PAN) is an Oakland-based non-profit that supports and advocates for Black immigrant communities in the Bay Area.

Through providing consistent information and access to legal, health and social service resources; networking and capacity building; and cultural meaning-making, PAN empowers and makes visible the needs and contributions of Black immigrants.

PAN’s ‘bridge-building’ agenda makes vital connections between Black immigrants and African Americans, and paves a path towards intentional integration, and identifying a common agenda towards the struggle for racial equity.

MISSION AND VISION

Priority Africa Network builds intergenerational bridges within the African diaspora to advance Pan-Africanism ideals that enable an inclusive and equitable society for all people.”
