We proudly support the overall development of Black athletes as they transition into the next phase of their life. Whether they are in college and wish to become a pro athlete or corporate executive there are a number of areas where they need support.

ABIS Black Coaches Watch List
We share a list of collegiate and professional sports' top Black men’s and women’s head and assistant coaches each year. Our goal is to provide a pipeline of the most deserving, qualified, and prepared Black coaches around the country and assist them in elevating their careers to the next level.
We support studies and analytics on disparate issues related to racial equity in sports. We address policies and actions that disadvantage individuals and groups because of the color of their skin.
We provide financial coaching to athletes to teach habits that will be sustainable for them through their lives. There is a specific emphasis on NIL education and how to increase their financial literacy.
We provide education for athletes through our Brand U Academy that is a total person program addressing personal, professional, and mental/physical wellbeing. The inaugural Assistant Coach Playbook is a development program that helps coaches prepare to become head coaches working with athletic directors and sports executives.
We partner with organizations to improve the communities in which we live through outreach, voting, and volunteerism. We seek to build trust with the communities in which we operate.
ABIS and INROADS have joined forces to rewrite history, ensuring that Black athletes and those who may not reach professional athlete status have access to opportunities for success.
