Thank you for joining us in 2023! Come back soon for more information on our 3rd annual conference.
what are we?
Igniting Black Baha’i Youth (IBBY) seeks to foster a space of healing and spiritual deepening for Black Bahai youth. We strive to assist the youth to know their station in the Faith, lay the foundation for a strong system of mutual support within the Black Baha'i youth community, create mentorships between Black Baha’i youth and adults, and overall uplift the spiritual strength, capacity, and steadfastness in Black Baha’i youth in our communities.
“They must always realize that they are the future of the Cause, and they should gain from experience as teachers and administrators from the older friends, in preparation for the time when the burden of the work will fall on their shoulders.”
— Shoghi Effendi, The Compilation of Compilations vol II, p. 438
