Mission Statement
The mission of the No Books No Ball (NBNB) Basketball Program is to empower  at-risk youth and other youth living in underserved communities to achieve academic success through the discipline and teamwork of basketball. By tying athletic participation to academic performance, we inspire our student athletes to graduate from high school, pursue higher education, and to achieve personal and professional success.

Vision Statement
Our vision is to create a culture where every student athlete recognizes their academic potential and uses basketball not just as a sport, but as a powerful tool to access scholarship opportunities that will allow them to pursue a college education or a professional trade.
