BVM Capacity Building Institute is a nonprofit organization based in Atlanta, Georgia that works to strengthen Black communities by building power through civic engagement and local organizing. It supports individuals and local networks year-round, not only on election day, with the aim of fostering enduring community power toward justice and equity. The organization's work also prioritizes recognizing and resourcing Black women leaders and crafting communications that reflect community issues and humanity. Its focus is on Black voters and other groups advancing social justice, including communities in rural counties, small towns, and urban areas. It positions itself as a capacity-building partner within the nonprofit sector, seeking to move beyond voter turnout to sustained, meaningful change. A recent development includes the March 2025 launch of the Take the Field initiative to boost student civic engagement by elevating student issues and organizing around policies affecting them at the local, state, and national levels.
