E
C
F
Thank
you
so
much
chair,
fletcher
and
members
of
the
committee.
I'm
gonna
just
start
with
a
little
briefing
on
what
the
governor
announced
at
noon
today.
Just
to
give
a
context
to
our
our
conversation
starting
tomorrow,
there
will
be
a
full
relaxation
of
outdoor
venue
restrictions
and
there
will
be
a
lifting
of
the
bar
and
restaurant
closing
time.
F
F
The
governor
is
ending
any
capacity
restrictions
for
retail
and
restaurants
and
other
places
distancing
our
six
feet.
Distancing
is
limitation
will
be
lifted,
but
the
face
covering
indoors
will
continue,
and
then
he
has
set
a
benchmark
of
july
1st
or
if
we
reach
70
of
the
16
plus
population
in
minnesota
being
vaccinated
at
least
once
we
will
no
longer
have
a
mask
mandate
just
for
reference
we're
now.
The
state
is
now
at
59.3
percent
of
the
population.
F
Over
16
has
had
at
least
one
vaccine
vaccination
and
in
hennepin
county
we
are
somewhere
between
60
and
70
percent
of
our
population.
So
we
have
a
an
ongoing
policy
committee
that
meets
every
two
weeks
and
we'll
be
discussing
whether
or
not
there
are
some
of
the
constraints
that
we
have
placed
in
minneapolis
that
we
will
continue
related
to
mask
wearing
in
in
light
of
these
changes,
especially
the
ones
july
first,
and
so
we'll
keep
you
appraised
of
of
our
thoughts
and
deliberations
on
that
front.
F
F
There
isn't
a
lot
of
it
because
we're
still
waiting
for
some
manufacturing,
hiccups
and
so
you'll
see
some
of
that
offered
around
not
a
great
deal.
We
also
expect
that
pfizer
will
seek
permission
to
be
used
for
12
to
15
year
olds,
probably
and
get
that
deliberation
next
week
in
minneapolis
we
have
vaccinated
over
260
000
of
our
residents,
who
are
16
and
over
and
our
clinics
that
the
health
department
is
running.
F
F
We
are
also
working
with
community
partners
across
the
city
and
making
sure
that
we
are
aware
of
vaccine
opportunities
and
are
getting
those
publicized
and
in
particular
we
are
promoting
the
fema
state
health
department,
state,
fair
site
and
six
other
locations,
including
pica
head
start.
The
aliveness
project-
saint
olaf,
lutheran
church
christ,
lutheran
church,
capri,
theater
and
living
spirit,
united
methodist
church,
so
lots
of
opportunities.
In
addition
to,
of
course,
people's
health
care
providers
for
getting
vaccines.
F
F
F
So
we
are
using
our
multilingual
communications,
including
printed
materials,
radio
shows
in
language
videos,
and
we
have
made
it
a
little
bit
easier
to
get
to
our
website.
So
you
see
the
the
address
there.
It's
a
tiny
url
which
will
make
it
clearer
and
easier
to
get
to
exactly
what
people
want
and
people
will
be
able
to
find
access
and
even
sign
up
for
vaccine
clinics.
F
F
All
right
next,
please
covet
testing
continues
to
be
important
and
I
think
people
might
be
under
the
assumption
that
if
they've
gotten
a
vaccine,
they
don't
need
to
test
anymore.
But
testing
is
really
critical
for
us,
especially
as
these
variants
are
circulating
for
us
to
be
able
to
connect
with
people
who've
been
exposed
to
keep
those
variants
from
from
spreading
through
the
measures
that
we
that
we
have
been
using
for
the
past
year.
F
Our
testing
rate
right
now
is
5.8
positive
of
5.8
percent
and
really
what
we're
aiming
for
is
a
positivity
rate,
that's
less
than
five,
so
we
still
have
a
you
know
higher
than
wanted
positivity
rate
in
the
testing
that
is
being
done,
and
so
that
really
underscores
the
need
to
continue
to
do
testing.
So
we
can
implement
these
measures.
F
F
We
are,
we
now
have
in
hand
some
additional
resources
to
use
in
addressing
this
ongoing
issue.
We
have
received
over
a
two
million
dollar
grant
through
the
state
that
was
federal
money
to
the
state
and
we
also
have
a
smaller
grant
that
will
help
us
focus
on
the
confluence
of
the
flu
and
getting
vaccinated
for
that
and
covet,
especially
in
the
somali
community.
F
The
first
is
a
health
literacy
grant
more
competitive
grant
that
will
focus
on
culturally
specific
messaging
and
outreach,
and
the
second
grant
the
14.2
million
grant
is
focused
on
health
disparities,
and
that
will
support
our
response.
Efforts
focused
on
reducing
disparities,
the
second
grant
we
were
invited
to
apply
for,
and
so
we
have
quite
a
bit
of
confidence
that
we
will
receive
that
one.
F
As
soon
as
that
is
permitted
by
the
federal
government
which
we
expect
is
coming
very
soon,
and
we
are
also
making
sure
that
we
have
the
kind
of
inventory
we
need
to
help.
Employers
provide
free
safety
supplies
for
employees
as
they
continue
to
need
them
through
the
summer
and,
finally,
we're
doing
some
messaging
about
summer
vacations.
The
importance
of
testing
when
one
is
traveling
and
guidance
for
vaccinated
parents
who
have
unvaccinated
children
and
and
managing
some
of
that.
G
G
I
was
impressed
to
see
that
we
had
vaccination
clinics
at
the
high
schools
and
it
occurred
to
me
how
well
geographically
distributed
they
are,
and
it
also
made
me
think
about
all
the
number
of
even
high
school-aged
youth.
We
have
that
might
not
be
students
in
those
high
schools
but
live
near
them
who
could
benefit
from
vaccinations
and
then
even
the
family
members
too.
G
So
I
just
want
to
kind
of
plant
the
seed
or
the
idea
that
if
those
services
work
well
there
and
we
think
we're
having
good
partnerships
with
those
schools
to
make
sure
we're
vaccinating
the
students
there
who
are
16
and
over
what
are
there
ways.
We
could
slowly
expand
that
potential
service
and
drive
people
there.
F
Chair
fletcher
councilmember
gordon.
No,
it's
not
a
rejected
idea
by
any
means.
I
I
think
it
is
something
that
that
is
under
discussion
and
especially
as
we
think
about
young
people
down
to
age,
12,
family
members,
I
think,
is
going
to
be
especially
important
and
as
we
try
and
reach
into
into
neighborhoods
that
are
near
those
schools
where
there
may
be
low
vaccination
rates.
I
think
that's
a
a
really
interesting
idea
so
like
if
you
saw
me
dip
out
of
view,
I
I
had
put
my
papers
on
the
floor.
G
Well
and
family
members
is
a
great
idea
because
you
can
easily
have
family
members
who
see
the
school
as
a
really
trusted
place
and
easy
to
go
to,
and
they
know
that
their
brother
or
sister
or
son
or
daughter
are
there.
And
so
I
think
that's
a
would
be
a
great
place
to
even
start.
But
thanks
so
much.
B
B
You
know
I,
I
think
that,
inevitably,
as
we
go
through
our
decision-making
process
in
reopening,
whether
that's
following
the
governor's
lead
or
if
we're
contemplating
any
regulations
ourselves
as
we
start
to
look
at
our
minneapolis-specific
data,
I
think
it's
very
important
to
recognize
that
there
are
going
to
be
people
with
a
variety
of
reactions.
To
that
that
people
are
going
to
wonder.
Are
we
going
too
fast?
B
I
know
the
downtown
workers
council
really
advocated
for
for
us
to
help
them
make
sure
that
they
have
ppe's
and
and
that
the
people
who
are
in
front
line
jobs,
who
probably
have
a
range
of
opinions
about
what
the
reopening
means
for
them
and
how
that's
going
to
impact
them
to
make
sure
they
can
at
least
get
the
equipment
that
they
need
to
keep
themselves.
Safe.
Is
a
critical
part
of
this
arrangement.
B
We're
on
a
very
good
trajectory
that
a
lot
of
things
are
going
very
well
in
terms
of
getting
people
vaccinated
is
is
minneapolis
currently
in
about
the
same
place
as
the
state.
I
know
we
got
the
state
statistics
around
we're
currently
around
60
and
working
to
get
to
70,
so
we
can
feel
safely
opening.
F
Having
said
that,
we
are
able
to
take
a
look
at
how
things
are
going
by
zip
code
in
minneapolis,
and
we
have
quite
a
variety
of
success
and
challenge
across
the
city,
and
so
we
have
some
zip
codes
that
are
very
close
to
70
percent,
if
maybe
not
even
at
70
already,
and
then
we
have
some
zip
codes
that
are
more
in
the
nearing
40
percent,
and
so
we
have
our
work
cut
out.
For
us,
there
are
some
weaknesses
in
the
in
the
maps
and
in
the
data.
B
That's
great,
I
appreciate
that.
I
know
that
there
are
a
lot
of
I'm
glad.
I'm
also
glad
to
see
you
moving
to
low-income
housing
towers
that
are
not
public
housing.
We
have
quite
a
few
of
those
in
my
ward,
and
I
know
that
we
have
folks
with
limited
mobility
in
those
buildings
who
will
really
benefit
from
the
vaccine
coming
to
them.
So
I
appreciate
that
program.
B
H
B
If
there
aren't
any
other
questions,
it
looks
like
there's
no
further
discussion.
I
will
direct
the
clerk
to
file
that
report.
Thank
you,
commissioner,
music
camp
and
we
will
move
on
to
item
number
10,
which
is
unicef's
child
friendly
city
initiative,
update
that
presentation.
Oh
we'll
also
be
commissioner
musicant,
so
you
can
stick
around
and
and
also
dave
oberg
from
the
university
of
minnesota.
Welcome.
F
Yes,
thank
you,
chair,
fletcher
and
and
again
members
of
the
committee
gretchen
musicant,
commissioner
of
health,
we're
bringing
this
report
to
you
on
child
friendly
city
initiative
as
an
update
to
show
just
the
inmate.
In
my
mind,
amazing
amount
of
work
we
have
achieved.
Even
while
we
are
addressing
this
pandemic.
F
The
global
unicef
effort
began
in
response
to
the
convention
on
the
rights
of
the
child
framework
being
adopted
by
the
u.n,
and
so
child-friendly
cities
have
been
developing
across
the
globe
since
then.
Unfortunately,
the
united
states
of
america
did
not
ratify
the
convention
on
the
rights
of
the
child,
and
so
there
really
hasn't
been
an
active
program
in
the
united
states
last
year.
Was
it
last
year?
F
No,
I
think
it
was
in
2019.
Sorry
there
was
a
meeting
convened
in
florida
and
dr
oberg
and
I
were
part
of
a
small
group
of
minnesotans
that
went
to
just
learn.
What
is
this
thing
called
child
friendly
cities
and
the
more
we
heard
about
it?
Just
a
second
I'm
gonna
pause
here.
I've
got
a
cleaning
person
that
I
just
need
to
give
some
instructions.
F
Too
sorry
about
that,
so,
let's
see
where
was
I
oh?
Yes,
we
wanted
to
learn
what
what
is
this
child
friendly
city
initiative
and
as
we
heard
about
it
over
those
several
days,
we
realized
that
in
minnesota
we
in
minneapolis
we
just
had
so
much
that
was
consistent
with
this
approach,
and
so
we
became
more
curious
about
it
and
and
learned
more
about
it
and
and
brought
it
to
you
to
help
us
think
about
moving
forward
as
a
child-friendly
city.
F
So
why
child
friendly
city
initiative,
city
minneapolis,
when
mayor
fraser
was
mayor,
he
signed
a
resolution
in
support
of
the
convention
on
the
rights
of
the
child
in
the
1990s,
and
so
we
have
a
really
long
standing
commitment
to
to
this
kind
of
work
and
building
on
we
have
a
youth
cabinet.
We
of
course,
have
the
long-standing
relationship
with
the
youth
coordinating
board.
F
This
is
also
an
equity
issue.
If
we
think
about
our
population,
we
have
approximately
80,
000
children
and
youth
under
18
in
minneapolis
and
about
58
percent
of
them
are
black
indigenous
or
people
of
color,
and
this,
if
you
juxtapose
it
with
the
adult
population
in
minneapolis,
we
have
about
38
percent
of
the
adult
population.
F
So,
as
I've
stated
already,
we
signed
an
mou
with
unicef
last
february
and
since
then,
there
have
been
national
cohort
monthly
calls
where
we
meet
with
unicef.
We
also
have
some
quarterly
calls,
just
within
with
our
cohort
partners,
to
share
stories
and
and
experiences
of
how
we're
moving
along
this
framework
we
have
as
a
result
of
our
work.
F
We
have
moved
from
sort
of
a
organically
organized
group
to
having
an
executive
committee
that
includes
city
staff,
ycb
staff,
community
volunteers,
some
of
whom
have
really
deep
expertise
in
child
rights,
and
we
are
moving
into
well
out
of
that.
We
have
these
three
groups:
engagement,
emergency
preparedness
and
response
and
child
rights
education.
F
In
the
engagement
realm,
we
are
underway
in
a
plan
to
include
some
minneapolis
youth
congress
members
in
our
executive
committee,
and
we
have
also
been
looking
at
resourcing,
and
so
our
hope.
We
will
be
hosting
an
urban
scholar
this
summer
to
help
jumpstart
some
of
the
work
that
we're
doing
and
also
have
applied
for
a
public
health
associate
from
the
cdc
who
would
help
be
able
to
help
us
for
two
years.
If
we're
successful
in
getting
that.
F
A
A
We
looked
at
our
own
current
emergency
plans
and
we
also
wanted
to
look
at
these
recent
events
in
minneapolis.
We
spent
some
time
actually
reviewing
the
documents
from
those
emergencies
that
I
mentioned,
and
this
this
effort
culminated
in
an
internal
issue
brief,
which
guides
our
work
to
this
day,
and
I
guess
overall,
we
just
want
to
ensure
that
children
and
families
are
intentionally
included
in
our
city's
future
emergency
preparedness
and
response
and
planning,
and
that
we
we
call
upon
you
to
help
us
in
that
regard.
A
A
A
Now
health
reach
on
reed
has
been
part
of
hennepin
healthcare
for
probably
20
years,
and
it's
actually
has
gone
statewide
since
that
time.
I
just
want
to
tell
you
how
that
works
during
a
well
child
visit.
As
you
can
see
in
this
photograph,
children
starting
at
age
six
months
are
given
an
age-appropriate
and
developmentally
appropriate
book
to
their
family
to
take
home
with
them,
and
the
book
is
also
discussed
during
that
well
child
visit
and
over
the
course
of
their
first
five
to
six
years
of
life.
A
We
know
that
when
we
read
to
our
children
it
helps
their
curiosity
grow
and,
as
I'm
sure
we
all
remember
it,
transplant
transports
us
to
places
and
experiences
that
they've
never
experienced
and
helps
our
understanding
of
the
world
and
just
holding
a
child
close
while
reading
can
really
help
them
manage
moments
of
anxiety
and
create
really
a
positive
association
so
that
people
can
become
lifelong,
lifelong
learners
and
lifelong
readers
next
slide.
Please.
A
So,
as
part
of
this
public
health
child
rights
education
initiative,
the
subcommittee
chose
a
book
called.
I
have
a
right
to
be
a
child
which
really
promotes
the
theme
of
children's
rights,
and
the
book
is
intended
for
children
right
in
that
four
to
seven
year,
age
group,
so
those
heading
out
to
school.
For
the
first
time,
we
were
able
to
raise
funds,
including
a
generous
donation
from
unicef,
usa
to
purchase
500
books,
and
the
publisher
of
the
book
also
gave
us
50
free
books
and
the
seed
funding.
A
We
really
expect
to
see
grow
over
the
next
coming
years.
As
we
build
upon
the
program,
we
actually
started
this
reach
out
and
read
child
rights
education
program
last
month
on
april
2nd
and
we'll
be
doing
a
back-to-school
public
launch
in
early
fall,
and
we
would
love
to
have
the
city.
Commissioners
from
this
committee
join
us
and
if
you're
interested
we'll
be
sharing
the
launch
detail
with
you
a
little
later
in
the
summer.
A
Two
of
the
things
that
we're
hoping
we'll
be
able
to
launch
in
the
coming
year.
In
addition
to
the
reach
out
and
read
initiative,
one
is
going
to
be
a
back
to
school
event
to
give
away
book
bags
with
school
supplies
and
again
the
book
that
I've
mentioned,
and
the
second
or
a
third
initiative,
which
is
also
very
exciting,
is
exploring
a
partnership
with
teachers
and
their
students
in
the
minneapolis
schools
to
write
about
their
own
story
and
what
it
means
about
children's
rights
and
be
able
to
share
those
books.
F
So
perhaps
I
neglected
to
say
early
on
in
my
presentation
that
our
focus
one
of
our
three
focus
areas
on
the
child
rights
education
is
because
there
really
is
not
a
very
strong
foundation
in
the
united
states
because
we
haven't
ratified
the
convention
on
the
rights
of
the
child,
and
so
it's
it's
important
for
us
to
begin
to
help.
Adults
and
children
understand
that
there
is
a
right
to
be
a
child.
So
it's
great
to
have
that
be
the
title
of
the
book
we've
chosen
as
well.
F
So
some
of
the
additional
progress
that
we've
made
to
date
is
that
we
are
working
with
unicef,
usa,
on
some
of
their
media
sports
and
corporate
partnership
relationships
and
trying
to
build
on
those
to
lift
up
bring
resources,
bring
energy
to
our
efforts
here
and
some
of
their
their
existing
partnerships
include
the
lynx
and
the
timberwolves,
and
so
we're
we're
having
those
conversations
and
then.
Secondly,
there
is
a
multi-year
international
effort,
called
growing
up
in
cities,
research
project
and
it
was
started
in
1970.
F
There
were
a
researcher
kevin
lynch
looked
at
the
relationship
between
built
space
and
well-being
of
of
children
and
in
the
1990s
that
was
repeated
in
eight
countries,
and
so
now
it
is
going
to
be
repeated
once
again
and
the
researchers
that
have
been
involved
in
this
have
chosen
four
of
the
cities
in
the
child
friendly
city
initiative.
Cohort
that
I
showed
you
at
the
beginning
and-
and
we
are
one
of
them
and
so
just
to
tell
you
a
little
bit
more
about
what
they're
doing.
This
is
a
multinational
effort
to
understand
contemporary
community
environments.
F
Secondly,
to
ground
these
analyses
in
the
lived
experience
of
local
youth
by
engaging
them
in
the
assessment
and
then
to
use
these
findings
as
the
foundation
for
the
development
of
youth-led
action
to
target
inequities
in
the
quality
of
and
access
to
health-promoting
neighborhood
environments.
And
so
we
really
think
this
is
complementary
to
the
work
that
we
are
doing
here
and
I
think
really
will
provide
great
information.
F
Because
I
wanted
to
tell
you,
oh
yeah
it'll
come
up
because
we're
going
to
ask
you
to
take
some
action.
Okay
next
slide,
please
so
also
on
our
horizon.
We
are
going
to
be
doing
a
community
assessment
this
summer,
both
with
youth
and
with
families
who
have
young
children
and
begin
to
hear
about
what
their
priorities
are.
To
use.
F
Next
slide,
please.
So
today
we
are
asking
for
some
action
from
your
committee
to
approve
the
city
of
minneapolis
entering
into
an
agreement
with
the
growing
up
cities,
research
project-
this
is
a
a
no-cost
relationship
and
what
it
will
do
will
give
us
access
the
city,
access
to
their
assessment
data
and
their
their
results
and
recommendations
and.
F
B
Wonderful,
thank
you
so
much
for
that
presentation.
I
want
to
first
apologize
and
correct
myself.
It
looks
like
we
had
your
name
wrong
on
the
script
dr
oberg,
so
I
referred
to
you
by
the
wrong
first
name.
So,
dr
chuck
oberg.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
contributions
to
this.
I
think
it
is
really
valuable
for
our
city
that
we're
we're
taking
time
and
continuing
a
project
to
make
sure
that
we're
considering
children
and
centering
some
of
our
thinking
around
public
health
around
children.
B
I
think,
especially
in
the
emergency
management
context,
it's
very
easy
in
a
crisis
for
the
adults,
making
decisions
to
focus
on
their
own
experience
and
what's
in
front
of
them
and
how
they
respond
to
the
crisis
and
having
done
this
thinking
in
advance,
I
hope
really
prepares
us
to
be
thoughtful
about
that.
So
I
really
appreciate
the
work,
I'm
happy
to
move
approval
of
this
item
and
then
I
am
also
happy
to
hand
over
chair
of
the
meeting
to
council
member
cunningham
who
has
arrived
from
his
other
appointment
and
mr
chair.
I
Thank
you
so
much
councilmember
fletcher,
so
councilmember
fletcher
has
moved
approval
of
item
number
10,
which
is
authorizing
the
city
of
minneapolis
to
become
a
community
collaborator
with
the
growing
up
in
cities,
project
to
identify
disparities
in
health
and
well-being,
outcomes
for
young
people
across
the
city
and
engage
youth
as
local
change
agents
and
authorizing
a
no-cost
mou
with
the
growing
up
in
cities
project.
Are
there
any
questions
or
comments
from
my
colleagues.
I
I
Of
course,
they're
chill
until
I
get
on
camera.
I
just
want
to
also
thank
you
for
your
leadership
and
your
due
diligence
as
we
are
navigating
very
challenging
times
in
the
public
health
realm.
The
fact
that
you
have
continuously
shown
up
and
shown
leadership
in
this
particular
area
and
we've
made
progress
is
really
remarkable.
So
thank
you
and
thank
you
to
the
the
whole
team
and
thank
you,
dr
oberg,
as
well.
So
with
that
we
have
a
motion
to
approve
item
number
10
and
clerk.
Will
you
please
call
the
roll.
C
I
That
item
carries
and
will
be
referred
to
next
week-
city,
council
meeting
and
so
with
item.
Our
last
discussion
item
for
today
is
receiving
and
filing
an
update
from
the
youth
coordinating
board
the
minneapolis
youth
congress
on
findings
of
the
youth
engagement
survey
on
reimagining
public
safety.
So
I'm
excited
to
welcome
ander
groot,
the
executive
director
of
the
youth
coordinating
board
to
kick
us
off
today.
Welcome.
J
And
one
of
the
projects
that
they've
taken
on
is
to
really
think
through
about
think
through
questions
around
public
safety
and
they're.
Here
today
to
present
to
you
their
findings
and
so
I'd
like
to
introduce
michaela
ferg,
who
is
a
staff
person
at
the
youth
coordinating
board
and
with
her
from
the
minneapolis
youth
congress,
are
maxine,
allman
and
elise
legler,
and
I
think
I
will
pass
it
on
to
michaela.
Who
is,
I
believe,
first,
but
I'm
not
sure.
K
Hi
everyone,
my
name,
is
michaela,
it's
anne
mentioned
and,
as
maddie
also
said
in
the
chat,
we're
having
a
little
bit
of
trouble
getting
some
of
our
youth
presenters
on
the
call
just
having
trying
to
sort
out
getting
them
the
right
links.
So
while
that
is
happening,
I
can
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
kind
of
the
overall
project
and
introduce
it
and
then
hopefully
this
should
be
on
the
call
to
go
review
kind
of
present
on
their
parts.
K
We
in
talking
with
the
office
of
violence
prevention,
did
wanted
to
add
a
thought.
It
was
very
important
to
add
a
supplement
to
some
of
the
community
engagement
specifically
around
public
safety
from
the
perspective
of
young
people,
because
you
know
young
people
do
make
up
a
big
part
of
our
community
here
in
minneapolis
and,
as
gretchen
mentioned,
that
they
are
also
disproportionately
or
there's
a
great,
a
larger
share
of
bipac
youth
rather
than
total
minneapolis
residents.
So
it
also
becomes
an
issue
of
equity.
K
K
K
D
Hi
I'm
maxine
allman,
I'm
in
nyc,
I
go
to
thomas
edison
high
school.
This
is
a
little
like
elevator,
b
speech
speech.
We
do
for
nyc
three
things
that
are
that
I'm
passionate
about
are
women's
rights,
school
and
plants,
and
then
one
thing
that
I
bring
to
the
table
that
others
may
not
is
my
passion
for
what
I
do
and
my
urge
to
just
make
a
change.
D
C
K
Cool
and
while
we
wait
for
our
second
presenter,
which
hopefully,
she
will
be
able
to
get
in
soon,
I
think
she's
still
having
a
little
trouble
joining
the
actual
like
meeting
and
not
just
the
watching
link
I'll
just
go
over
for
the
committee
members,
who
are
maybe
unfamiliar
with
what
the
youth
congress
is.
So
the
youth
coordinating
board,
which
is
an
independent,
I
think,
technically,
an
independent
board
of
the
city,
but
also
is
an
intersectional
body
between
the
city,
hennepin,
county
minneapolis,
public
schools
and
minneapolis
park
and
recreation
board.
K
We
do
house
the
minneapolis
youth
congress,
which
is
a
body
of
about
40,
to
60
young
people
a
little
less
this
year,
just
because
of
cobid,
but
typically
40-60
young
people
who
do
have
opportunities
to
okay
and
elise
is
on.
So
they
had
opportunities
to
kind
of
lend
their
youth
perspectives
and
assist
on
projects
that
the
cities
or
other
jurisdictions
we
work
on
have
when
they
have
a
need
for
a
youth
perspective.
K
I
I
K
K
Sorry
trying
to
communicate
and
get
her
back
on,
I
think
her
microphone
wasn't
working,
but
the
youth
congress
yeah
can
assist
on
projects
within
different
jurisdictions.
They've
worked
with
the
city
in
the
past,
notably
on
the
t21,
so
raising
the
tobacco
age
to
21
initiative
a
few
years
back,
and
I
think
would
also
testify
to
the
council
during
that.
For
this
specific
project,
we
had
a
small
group
of
maybe
ten
five
to
ten
members
who
kind
of
helped
shape
the
survey.
K
Thinking
of
like
you
know,
how
did
they
want
to
get
input
from
young
people,
because
you
know
thinking
about
their
peers,
so
it
was
decided
on
using
a
survey
was
the
best
method
and
then
also
helped
adapt
the
survey
from
the
one
that
the
office
of
violence
prevention
was
using
into
a
survey
that
felt
more
accessible
to
young
people.
So
some
of
it
was
changing
some
of
the
language
to
be
a
little
less
formal.
I
J
Resume,
I
would
say
if
it
would
be
all
right,
just
by
way
of
information,
that
our
young
people
in
the
youth
congress
are
very
enthusiastic
about
being
engaged
on
this
issue
of
reimagining
public
safety
and
when
we
talked
with
them
about
planning
and
they
worked
on
the
city
2040
plan.
One
of
the
things
we
reminded
them
was
that
in
2040
they
would
be
the
age
that
many
of
the
people
they
were
working
with
are
now
that
this
was
a
plan
that
affected
their
lives
now
into
the
future.
J
So
I
think
they're
enthusiastic
to
have
this
opportunity
and
are
enthusiastic
to
be
able
to
continue
working
on
this.
So
I'm
glad
that
they
grabbed
this
this
opportunity
and
took
it
and
have
information
for
you.
It
looks
like
maybe
we're
going
to
have
at
least
call
into
the
meeting
so
we'll
see
about.
J
I
Colleagues,
my
apologies
for
for
having
to
do
a
brief
recess,
but
let's
go
ahead
and
do
a
brief
recess
again.
We
want
to
be
able
to
make
sure
that
we're
being
intentional
about
creating
space
for
young
folks
to
be
able
to
come
and
present
to
the
committee,
so
let's
go
ahead
and
take
a
five
minute
recess
while
they
help
get
things
worked
out
and
we'll
get
started
back
here
shortly.
Thank.
I
L
L
L
M
E
I
No,
it's
okay!
I
know
that
the
struggle
can
be
real
with
trying
to
make
technology
work,
but
we're
super
super
happy
to
have
you
here,
so
I
will
go
ahead
and
reconvene
this
meeting
and
have
us
come
out
of
recess
with
that.
I
will
turn
it
back
over
to
michaela
to
introduce
our
guest
presenters
thanks.
K
K
E
E
So
if
you
go
to
the
survey
results
the
next
slide,
I
will
present
some
of
the
results
that
we
got
from
our
survey
that
we
conducted
so
first.
One
of
the
questions
that
we
asked
surveyors
was
in
what
situation
would
you
call
9-1-1
and
the
only
situation
that
a
majority
of
surveyors
would
common?
One
is
if
they
had
witnessed
something
violent
happen,
so
surveyors
responded
that
they
would
think
twice
in
the
situ.
E
They
would
think
twice
calling
9-1-1
in
situations
that
included
or
that
had
people
with
that
had
people
with
mental
health
crises,
situations
involving
poc,
sexual
and
domestic
abuse,
undocumented
person
is
involved,
not
knowing
the
other
person
within
the
dispute.
Reckless
driving
and
person
experiencing
homelessness
involved
next
slide,
please
so
next.
This
is
a
graph
of
how
comfortable
surveyors
felt
calling
the
police,
so
the
average
was
46
out
of
100
next
five,
please.
E
So
the
next
slide
shows
a
couple
of
quotes
explaining
their
ratings.
So
overall
surveyors
expressed
hesitancy,
calling
911
if
somebody
of
color
was
involved
or
if
the
crisis
had
to
do
with
mental
health.
Some
some
surveyors
confess
that,
although
they
believe
their
skin
color
would
not
have
an
impact
on
their
response,
they
expressed
worry
that
their
friends
and
peers
of
color
might
have
negative
experiences
with
911
and
the
police.
E
A
couple
surveyors
said
that
they
felt
as
though
911
was
risky
due
to
news
stories
and
other
prior
history
about
911,
and
some
surveyors
explicitly
said
that
they
did
not
feel
comfortable
calling
on
9-1-1
because
of
their
skin
color
next
slide.
Please
so
another
question
that
we
asked
was
in
what
situations
do
you
do?
E
D
Cool
yeah,
so
next
slide,
please
yeah,
so
this
is
just
going
through
kind
of
like
some
demographics
of
our
survey
of
the
people
that
took
it,
and
even
though
we
do
believe
our
survey
has
valid
information.
There
were
some
groups
underrepresented
to
the
overall
people
of
minneapolis
and
like
comparison,
so
over
half
of
our
responses
were
people
who
identify
as
cis
women.
All
of
our
responses
were
from
youth
within
minneapolis,
which
was
our
goal.
D
We
didn't
get
responses
from
certain
race,
ethnicity,
race,
race,
ethnicities
such
as
native
american
alaskan
or
hawaiian
native
and
middle
east
or
north
african,
and
the
majority
sexuality
we
got
answers
from
was
straight
slash,
heterosexual
next
slide,
please,
and
so
this
is
a
graph
of
the
gender
statistics
for
this
slide.
Next
five
next
slide,
please
the
survey
race
and
ethnicity
yeah
next
slide,
please
and
then
sexuality,
and
then
next
slide
please.
D
So
we
also
looked
at
demographics,
for
you
know
how
comfortable
people
felt
calling
the
police
and
that
included.
You
know
lgbt
community
different
races
and
gender.
So
next
slide,
please
so
the
most
peop,
the
most
comfortable
people
calling
the
police
within
the
survey
were
white
hispanic,
cis-men
and
straight
or
heterosexual.
People
felt
the
most
comfortable
calling
the
police,
and
that
is
shown
within
the
graphs.
So
next
slide
yeah
and
then
I'll
pass
it
back
to
elise.
For
the
conclusion.
E
E
D
Cool
yeah,
so
this
kind
of
goes
into
some
other
research.
We
did
added
on
to
our
survey,
but
we
found
some
research
on
slow
police
responses
to
calls
to
911
calls.
So
over
the
past
couple
years,
thousands
of
calls
are
getting
slow
responses
by
police.
This
is
believed
to
be
due
is
believed
to
be
due
to
priority
of
call
to
the
police
from
a
public.
9-1-1
calls
queue
of
minneapolis.
D
D
879
calls
our
second
priority,
and
yet
they
take
8.4
times
longer
to
respond
to
than
a
first
priority
call
and
that's
yeah
about
half
the
calls.
So
next
next
slide-
and
this
is
from
the
public
911-
calls
queue
of
the
minneapolis
police
department
and
it
shows
the
graph
of
how
the
police
respond
to
calls
in
time
so
yeah
between
2017
and
2019
and
I'll
pass
it
back
to
elise
for
some
more.
E
E
So,
given
this
along
with
the
slow
response
times-
and
of
course
our
survey
results,
it's
essential
to
our
community's
safety
to
suggest
different
alternatives
to
police
responses
with
9-1-1
calls
next
slide
please.
So
this
is
some
research
that
we
did
to
different
alternatives,
so
the
first
would
be
social
workers
which
was
very
popular
in
our
survey.
E
They
could
work
as
either
contracted
workers
or
we
could
form
corresponding
teams
that
would
consist
of
social
workers
and
not
police
officers.
So
it's
similar
to
how
police
are
experts
of
law
enforcement.
Social
workers
would
be
experts
at
addressing
different
social
issues,
so
they
would
provide
an
effective
and
appropriate
response
to
different
911
calls.
So
this
would
free
the
police
department
to
respond
to
criminal
and
law
enforcement
issues,
which
would
also
reduce
costs
of
recruiting
new
police,
and
this
has
been
used
successfully
across
the
country
from
washington
to
new
york
next.
E
E
So
again,
like
social
workers,
they
are
effective
and
appropriate
and
it
again
frees
the
police
department
to
respond
to
other
things
next
slide.
Please
next
is
a
model
that
that
we
found
that
was
a
crisis
intervention
team,
so
this
would
be
a
collaborative
strategy
that
would
train
police
officers
to
help
properly
respond
to
mental
and
behavioral
health
crises
and
help
link
them
to
proper
psychiatric
care,
and
it
can
also
include
different
peer
advocates
and
specialists.
E
Although
I
found
that
this
model
kind
of
lacks
training
on
responding
to
different
situations
that
pertain
to
intellectually
and
developmentally
disabled
people,
so
then
the
next
thing
that
I
would
suggest
is
like
specific
responses
for
that.
So
it
would
be
training
and
developmenting
collaborative
multidisciplinary
teams
to
train
and
address
issues
that
relate
to
criminal
justice
in
the
disabled
community.
So
this
model
would
emphasize
collaboration
and
building
relationships
with
the
disabled
community
next
slide,
please,
and
so
this.
E
The
next
thing
would
kind
of
like
cooperate
with
social
workers,
and
that
would
be
a
mobile
crisis
team,
so
they
would
be
a
group
of
mental
health
professionals,
primarily
social
workers
and
nurses.
That
would
respond
to
different
mental
and
behavioral
health
issues
within
their
communities,
and
so
this
would
help
lower
unnecessary
hospital
visits
and
connect
patients
to
different
community-based
services.
E
And
lastly,
something
that
we
could
use
is
restorative
justice,
so
rather
than
calling
the
police
or
sending
the
police,
if
the
perpetrator
is
identified,
you
could
practice
restorative
justice.
So
it's
not
a
complete,
like
replacement
for
the
criminal
justice
system,
but
it
can
be
used
for
very
low
level
offenses
because
it
works
to
heal
and
mend
relationships
rather
than
punishing
the
perpetrator,
and
this
has
been
used
across
the
globe
and
especially
in
indigenous
communities,
so
I'll
pass
it
to
maxine.
For
the
final
summary.
D
Cool
yeah
so
next
slide-
and
this
is
our
final
summary
of
like
all
our
research
and
data
that
we
put
together.
So
the
youth
of
minneapolis
do
not
feel
comfortable
calling
the
police,
the
people
who
do
are
mainly
not
minorities
in
the
city
and
that
does
not
equally
represent
the
diversity
of
our
city.
D
D
We
need
more
priority
to
resources
for
those
calls
they
are
receiving
some
alternatives,
as
at
least
stated,
are
social
workers,
paramedics,
clinicians
crisis
intervention,
team,
intellectual,
slash,
develop
developmental
disability,
specific
response,
mobile
crisis
team,
restorative
justice,
all
those
great
options,
all
minneapolis
residents
have
the
right
to
feel
safe
and
have
the
resources
to
feel
safe
and
healthy
to
use
911
as
a
resource
in
certain
dangers
and
problems.
People
face
so
yeah
and
I'll
pass
it
back
to
michaela.
K
I
G
I
just
also
wanted
to
express
my
gratitude.
I
think
you
know
the
youth
congress
plays
a
really
important
role
and
brings
some
voices
into
the
picture,
but
it
doesn't
unless
we
hear
from
them,
so
really
appreciate
you
taking
this
on
and
doing
that
survey
conducting
that
research
analyzing
some
of
that
data,
I
will
say
that
some
of
the
themes
that
you
did
you
brought
forward,
we've
heard
in
other
areas
from
other
people
and
other
venues,
and
this
helps
us
kind
of
pick
and
see
and
define.
Where
is
the
consensus?
G
Where
is
there
the
agreement?
Clearly,
we
want
people
to
be
able
to
call
the
city
when
they're
in
a
crisis
or
when
there's
a
problem
and
get
the
help
that
they
need,
and
it's
very
concerning
that.
What
you
learn
is
that
that
isn't
happening
and
we
need
to
find
ways
to
make
that
happen.
I
think
me
and
my
colleagues
are
really
digging
into
that
work
and
have
been
for
a
while
now-
and
this
is
gonna-
add
some
really
important
information
for
us
to
see
where
we
are
going.
G
That
might
be
right
and
we
have
kind
of
agreement
and
consensus
from
folks,
including
young
people
and
areas
where
we
can
look
at
more
carefully
and
more
closely
and
see
if
we
can
do
more.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
the
report
and
I'll
look
forward
to
referring
back
to
it.
Often
in
the
weeks
and
months
ahead.
B
Thank
you
cunningham,
and
thank
you
to
the
participants
on
the
youth
coordinating
board
for
this
presentation.
I
think
your
data
and
research
is
validated
by
and
validates
the
research
of
the
office
of
performance
and
innovation
that
has
done
similar
survey,
work
and
community
engagement,
work
and
come
to
similar
conclusions,
particularly
on
the
alternative
responses
and
the
willingness
to
call
police.
Those
are
questions
that
have
been
asked
and
answered.
B
Of
different
age,
demographics
in
similar
ways,
so
I
appreciate
adding
your
data
to
the
mix
of
supportive
data
that
tells
us
how
people
are
feeling
about
our
current
system
of
public
safety.
It's
very
very
important,
and
it
does
really
add
to
the
conversation,
so
I'm
glad
you're
submitting
this
to
ovp
as
part
of
the
engagement
record
and
submitting
it
to
us.
I
really
appreciate
the
chance
to
hear
your
findings.
B
What
are
the
kind
of
alternative
strategies
and
community
building
and
supports
that
we
could
offer
that
would
help
divert
people
from
criminal
activity.
What
are
the
kinds
of
things
we
could
do
to
help
protect
people
from
ways
that
they're
targeted,
and
I
I
think
that
often
we
come
up
with
ideas
as
as
adults
that
don't
always
resonate
or
hit
the
mark
in
that
area
in
particular.
B
If
people
have
ideas
about
the
kind
of
youth
community
investments
that
they
would
like
to
see
the
city
making
right
now,
so
I
would
encourage
you
to
continue
digging
in
on
these
issues
and
really
know
that
we're
a
receptive
audience
if
you
want
to
come
to
us
with
solutions
in
a
future
meeting.
I
would
invite
that.
Thank
you.
H
Have
the
youth
coordinating
board
come
and
lend
more
of
a
voice
to
various
areas
of
the
city,
including
recovery
and
and
that
we're
gonna
be
hotly
debating
in
the
next
couple
of
months
here
and
so
yeah?
I
look
forward
to
reaching
back
out
and
and
and
making
it
so
that
we
can
get
more
of
a
youth
perspective.
Because,
again,
you
know
every
group
shows
up
city
hall,
whether
it's
about
you
know
public
safety
or
or
any
other
topic,
and
about
the
youth,
the
youth,
the
youth.
H
What
youth
need-
and
here
you
guys-
are
giving
us
great
a
great
presentation
and
great
data,
and,
and
it
sounds
very
different
than
some
of
the
voices
who
have
come
speaking
on
your
behalf,
and
so
I
want
to
provide
more
of
a
platform
for,
for
you
all
to
come.
Speak
on
your
own
behalf,
and
thank
you
for
the
information
you
gave
us
today.
I
That's
something
I've
been
interested
in
having
more
conversations
about
from
your
perspective,
how
can
we
best
engage
young
people
in
that
particular
conversation
without
it
necessarily
being
too
triggering
for
them
to
be
able
to
engage
in
that
conversation?
But
you
know
young
folks
are
the
best
experts
in
that
particular
area
about
what
young
folks
need.
Do
you
have
any
thoughts
to
be
able
to
maybe
share
on
that?
It's
kind
of
a
big
big
question,
but
I
would
be
curious
to
see
if
you
have
any
initial
thoughts.
D
I
think
it's
really
like,
as
we
said,
it's
difficult
to
go
off
those
topics,
especially
to
youth,
because
it
can
be
triggering
and
traumatizing,
but
I
think
the
best
way
to
go
about
it
is
just
by
going
to
youth
and
asking
them
how
they
would
like
to
present
and
to
who
they
would
like
to
be
advocating
for
themselves
instead
of
just
like,
I
don't
know,
just
randomly
being
going
to
them,
going
to
the
schools
or
something
and
being
there
to
be
like
hey.
We
need
this
and.
M
I
Yeah,
that's
great
feedback.
Thank
you.
This
is
a
topic,
a
very
strong
interest
of
mine,
so
I
would
love
to
be
able
to
continue
collaborating
with
you
all
on
that
particular
topic,
but
also
more
broadly,
around
alternatives.
I
think
that
you
know
when
we
are
thinking
about
mental
health
crisis
responses.
I
I
think
it's
going
to
be
very
important
for
us
to
be
continuously
working
in
partnership,
so
I
look
forward
to
being
able
to
continue
working
with
you
all
and
welcome
you
back
at
any
time
to
come
and
present
great
information
like
this
and
recommendations
to
us
policymakers.
So,
thank
you.
Everyone!
Thank
you,
anne!
Thank
you
michaela
as
well,
so
I
will
decl
direct
the
clerk
to
please
receive
and
file
that
report
and
with
that
seeing
no
further
business
before
us
and
without
objection.
I
will
declare
this
meeting
adjourned.
Thank
you.
