In the 1960s, nearly 80% of Black children were raised in two-parent homes. Today, that number has flipped on its head. At TakeCharge, we are confronting this crisis head-on.

This summer, we hosted 110 married couples in a grassroots effort to gather insights on how to raise a new generation that embraces Christ-centered marriage. What we learned was both powerful and inspiring: our youth are not apathetic—they are hungry for mentorship, purpose, and a vision for strong, stable families.
