BDPA
is a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization
that consists primarily of persons directly
employed by or interested in the Information
Technology (IT) industry. Earl Pace, Jr.
and David Wimberly founded BDPA in May
1975 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, out
of shared concerns that minorities were
not adequately represented in the computer
industry. We were the first national organization
to address issues related to the “Digital
Divide.”
We provide professional and personal enrichment
through monthly program meetings and other
activities. Education,
training and professional
development programs are some of the strategies
actively used by the association in
reaching
these objectives.
