History of Mocha Moms, Inc.

Mocha Moms, Inc. began with the publishing of a newsletter called Mocha Moms in the hopes of connecting at-home mothers of color with each other . The newsletter was intended to encourage these mothers to feel good about their choice as well as to provide information to help them be the best and most important influence in their children's lives. 

It was distributed to over 100 moms across the country in the Spring of 1997. During the summer of 1997, moms in Prince George's County, Maryland decided to form a support group called Mocha Moms, Inc. There are now over 100 chapters of Mocha Moms, Inc. throughout the United States and the organization is continually growing and evolving to meet the needs of  our moms, their families, and the communities they live in.

Boys Booked on Barbershops (B-BOB)

Boys Booked on Barbershops is a national, cutting edge literacy program designed to make the most of naturally occurring opportunities for young children to read in familiar neighborhood sites such as barbershops. Mocha Moms chapters throughout the country are working with barbershops in their communities to set up reading nooks with a wide variety of books designed to spark the interest of young boys. The overall goal of B-BOB is to facilitate the ongoing practice of reading as boys make their regular visits to barbershops.

The Southern Prince George's County Chapter of Mocha Moms Inc. donated a book nook and books for varying different age groups and reading levels to Q's Barbershop (5725 Martin Luther King Jr Hwy, Capitol Heights, MD 20743).
