In this episode of Rewriting the Rules®, we take listeners to a YouthPowerMN℠ Leadership Institute celebration following SPYS’ business partnership event with Allina Health called There’s a Career for You in Healthcare. This partnership event included a mentorship over 3-months between Allina Health adult leaders and SPYS’ YouthPowerMN℠ Leadership Institute.
In this episode, you’ll hear from youth leaders, Allina Health mentors, and SPYS’ staff as they share their experiences, make recommendations, and offer inspiration following this first-time experience. We hope that this conversation can offer fertile ground to continue to think about how we can transform cultures and practices towards a new vision of society.
About YouthPowerMN℠: St. Paul Youth Services’ YouthPowerMN℠ Leadership Institute offers an organizing hub where Black youth are compensated for their intellectual capital, lived experiences, and contributions to improve our communities. Youth can gather, reflect, express themselves, build skills, organize, and advocate for serious change on issues that affect their lives.
Our motto is: Kids Changing Systems vs Systems Changing Kids®. We believe that it is THE most promising and proportionate approach to dismantling systemic racism, and that by engaging youth in shaping and promoting solutions is a largely untested yet effective and strategic approach to change.
