SAAB membership is open to any student attending an institution that has a registered SAAB Chapter. Institutions that have an interest in supporting the development of African American and young males of color on their campus should contact SAAB National Headquarters for more information on establishing a SAAB Chapter within their institution. 

SAAB Affirmation

SAAB is an evidence-based initiative designed to address the needs of underserved male and female students given the systemic disparities that tend to face these groups academically, personally and professionally. While SAAB’s original charge in 1990 was focused largely on Black men, we recognized in 2006 the need to be sensitive to Title VI and Title IX issues and recognized that the disparities facing all students (male and female) exist in varying degrees. To allow flexibility for our chapters and ensure all students feel validated in our much needed transformative experience, we permit schools and institutions to use the names “Brother to Brother”, “SAAB”  or “Sisters to Sisters”.  SAAB chapters represent men and women from every racial group/ethnicity and creed. SAAB does not discriminate, or limit membership based on race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or any other traditional and primary dimensions that would typically exclude others from participation.   All SAAB  Chapter “General Body” meetings are open to the general public regardless of their existence on a public or private educational campus.
