The National Black Catholic Congress is an organization of African-American Roman Catholics, founded in 1889 by Daniel Rudd[1] as the Colored Catholic Congress,[2] and revived in the 1980s under its current name. Their symbol is the Acacia. Their mission is to improve and enrich the lives of African-American Catholics. The National Black Catholic Congress (NBCC) operates in close cooperation and coordination with the African-American Bishops of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops[3] and has received funding support from the Black and Indian mission collection since 1988.[4]

Five national congresses were held from 1889-1894. After a long hiatus, six additional national congresses have been held every five years since 1987.[5]
