Books and Barber Shops

Barbershops that participate CFMB’s Books and Barbershops program. Barbershops have always been a culturally significant place for men to gather and discuss current events, politics, and sports. It’s a place where fathers spend time with their children and where boys learn to become men. Now it is a place for reading and learning too. Books and Barbershops is a community visibility program that raises awareness on the value of academic mentoring, specifically in the area of early childhood literacy.
