About AASS
Furthering Black progress through business, technology, and community safety.
Our Mission
Building safety, power, and progress for Black America
The African American Safety Society (AASS) exists to further Black progress through business and technology, with the ultimate aim of making our communities safer. We release software and tools that strengthen economic power, reduce risk, and give communities the information they need to thrive.
What drives us
Safety First
Every tool and initiative we build centers on making Black communities safer — physically, economically, and socially.
Community Power
We believe in community ownership of data, decisions, and technology. Our tools are built with communities, not just for them.
Data-Driven
Research and analytics guide our approach. We surface the data communities need to advocate effectively for themselves.
