The Roundtable’s mission is to improve the quality of life for African–Americans in the St. Louis metropolitan region. This is accomplished through dialogue, catalytic partnership and direct action. The Roundtable focuses on education, economic development, healthcare, voter awareness and social justice. The Economic Development Committee designs and implements a regional economic development strategy with an emphasis on promoting African–American business ownership. The committee has created the Center for the Acceleration of African American Business (the Center) to provide resources to support the growth and development of businesses owned by African Americans.
