SPPN addresses tough issues facing our community

The Saint Paul Promise Neighborhood addresses tough issues facing our community, including the education opportunity gap, public disinvestment, multi-generational poverty, and other factors that influence individual and community success. With our community partners, we focus on changing the odds for a whole neighborhood of children and their families using a culturally-responsive, two-generation approach.

The People's Fellowship for Black/African American Families

The People's Fellowship is a 5-month journey for fellows to build for themselves, family and community. The People's Fellowship is for Black and African American families guided by the Nguzo Saba principles of Self-Determination (Kujichagulia) and Cooperative Economics (Ujamaa). This is a perfect opportunity for families to learn how to boost income while being set on the pathway to building wealth and assets for the future with culture at the center.
