Please join us at the Hawthorne Huddle on Thursday, March 6, when Mayor R. T. Rybak will present the Blueprint for Action: Preventing Youth Violence in Minneapolis, the goal of which is to significantly reduce and prevent youth violence in our city.

The Youth Violence Prevention Steering Committee created the Blueprint after much research into best practices as well as discussions with Minneapolis youth, consultations with national experts and others to understand the complex issues facing the youth in our community.

Please join us to learn how you can become involved in this effort to help direct youth in a more positive direction.
