Biracial Partnerships for Community Progress was initiated in 2001 by Mayor William A. Johnson as a program that matches people of different races and ethnic groups in order to break down the racial misunderstandings in the Rochester community.  In its inception, the Biracial Partnerships for Community Progress program focused on African American, Hispanic and Caucasian partnerships among regional leaders.  In its second phase the program partnered Muslim and non-Muslim community members. Currently phase three continues the roll out throughout the general population. The process is designed to expand to tens of thousands of people in every stratum and sector of the City of Rochester in the years to follow.
