Our Mission


MBAC supports minority businesses by advocating for fairness in government procurement. We understand the value of diverse businesses for a strong economy and strive to level the playing field for their success.


Our Mission

We are the National Minority Business Advisory Council (MBAC), a 501(c)(4) headquartered in Washington State, King County, positioned as a unifying voice in Washington State for minority business enterprises (MBEs) on policy and public procurement reform.

The mission of MBAC is to engage, inform, and empower MBEs to achieve public contract equity by increasing awareness of public procurement inequities, advancing action that invokes accountability of Title VI of the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 for those municipalities that receive Federal funds, and finally, assisting minority business advocacy efforts that promote fair and equal opportunity for our historically disadvantaged communities of color, both regionally and nationally.

Guided by the principles of justice and equity, our goal is to be a unifying voice for minority businesses, advocating for policy reforms and public procurement equity. We strive to engage, inform, and empower minority business enterprises to achieve their full potential.

We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community... Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own.
