The Brooklyns Youth Website is a resource for youth in the Brooklyn Park and Brooklyn Center area for activities, job opportunities, news & updates, and more!
This website is a collaborative effort between the cities of Brooklyn Center and Brooklyn Park, Minnesota…a community referred to by youth as “the Brooklyns”.
There are many positive youth initiatives rising up in “the Brooklyns,” much of which is spearheaded by the Brooklyn Bridge Alliance for Youth, a joint powers group comprised of the two cities as well as the county, four school districts and two public colleges. Members of the Alliance include Hennepin County, the City of Brooklyn Center, City of Brooklyn Park, Anoka-Hennepin School District, Brooklyn Center School District, Osseo Area School District, Hennepin Technical College, and North Hennepin Community College.
Each city has a coordinating organization to connect and communicate between city staff, residents, organizations, businesses and the faith community in positive youth development initiatives. Brooklyn Center’s Youth Collaborative is spearheaded by the BC Police Department and Brooklyn Park’s Youth Opportuntiies Coalition is managed by the Recreation and Parks Department.
The entire community is welcome to contribute to these initiatives and to this website. If you would like to submit information for posting or for other connections, please email: info@brooklynsyouth.com
