About National Association of Black Accountants, Inc. Southern New England & Westchester Chapter
The National Association of Black Accountants (NABA, Inc.), is a nonprofit membership association dedicated to bridging the opportunity gap for black professionals in the accounting, finance and related business professions. Representing more than 200,000 black professionals in these fields, NABA advances people, careers, and the mission by providing education, resources, and meaningful career connections to both professional and student members, fulfilling the principle of our motto: Lifting As We Climb.
The National Association of Black Accountants, Inc. - Southern New England & Westchester Professional Chapter (SNEW) was chartered in June 1991 at its First Annual Scholarship and Awards Banquet. The chapter was founded by a small core of dedicated individuals to address the professional development and networking needs of African American accounting and business professionals in the areas of New Haven and Fairfield Counties, Connecticut and Westchester County, New York, which was added in 2001.
The Southern New England & Westchester chapter was established to expand the reach of NABA initiatives. Comprised of professionals in the Southern New England area of Connecticut and Westchester area of New York, we work to continue in the NABA motto “Lifting As We Climb.” Together with students from the University of Bridgeport, Iona College, and West Connecticut State University, we form the Southern New England & Westchester chapter.
