Common Pathway

This year, Common Pathway is aiming to reach $11,000 to continue to increase capacity in our 2020 Summer Organizing Youth leadership program. Donations towards this program will be used to increase stipends for the refugee and immigrant Youth, provide basic needs such as transportation, food, and provide program supplies for mental health workshop equipment, and printing costs. The youth program workshops will engage youth in a conversation about trauma, addiction, health and wellness, violence, mental health support and leadership. 

This past year, Common Pathway has also increased the number of middle and high school aged youth involved in our Summer Youth Program, going from 8 in to 20 in matter of weeks. During the Summer Youth Organizing, the youth will able to explore their community’s backyard, go to youth conferences and field trips to dive deeper into socially conscious issues like disability justice, educational equity, language barriers, and more. On field trips, youth will be able to visit Urban Roots to learn about food justice. Each youth will led their own final project which culminated in a final showcase at the end of the summer. 

Funds raised from GiveMN will also go towards the Youth Program, allowing for an increase in youth stipends, providing funds for transportation for the refugee and immigrant Youth, funding field trips to learn more about local organizations and work in the community, and providing program supplies for their projects.

* $30 will provide youth with funding to organize youth spaces/events
