2016

This report evaluates the Stand Up Participate (SUP) program for its performance and outcomes of the second program year (September, 2015- August, 2016). SUP program is a three-year community-based program focuses on at-risk minority youth in North Minneapolis, Brooklyn
Park, and Brooklyn Center. With the changing demographic characteristics in the state of
Minnesota, especially fast rising African American and Southeast Asian American population, makes the issues of minority educational disparities, youth violence prevention, and bicultural healthy living conditions increasingly critical in these minority-concentrated areas.
