The COS (pronounced cause) Communities provides a place where you can ask questions, share answers and socialize with people who are seeking advice on topics that are vital to communities across the country. Come on in and get involved.
Why Participate in the COS Communities?
For the last generation or two, the world’s sense of community has
dissolved and our parenting skills have broken down — this puts our
young people at risk, especially young black males.
The COS Communities address critical issues Americans face all over the United States. The goal is to prepare our communities with an education and skill set that can support the success of our young people.
How did the COS Communities get their start?
Our communities began with a group of dedicated citizens that were
ready and willing to deal with the serious issues that face our youth
today. From three and a half years of town hall meetings hosted by Bill
Cosby — Cosby Call-Outs — we learned a lot about what issues are most
pressing in the United States today. We listed five issues that outline
different cases where this country has lost its sense of community. We
then created five communities that act as forums for you to talk and
learn about each of these issues. The communities are as follows:
- Get an Education/Skills
- Be a Parent/Caregiver
- Be Healthy
- Stop Violence
- Get a Job
We invite you to participate in our communities by interacting with
others who share the same concerns as you. Come ask your own questions
and help provide answers for others by contributing to the COS
Communities today.
