Banyan Health and Safety Statement
The health and safety of Banyan youth, families, and staff is our primary concern as we monitor the guidelines from the CDC and MDH to mitigate spread of COVID-19. Our Pandemic Preparedness Plan serves as a foundation for our operations and program modifications while addressing health and safety needs. For example, masks are required on the premises, temperatures are taken upon arrival, and social distancing is practiced.
The pandemic has changed how we interact with each other and conduct programs, and the learnings we have gained will continue to influence our health and safety practices this year and beyond. Banyan’s work to develop youth, strengthen family, and create community has never been more important and remains intact. Our vital work has always been and will always be more than what happens in our building. The relationships and trust we have forged with our neighbors will guide us through as we support families now and into the future.
St. Bart’s and Banyan Partner for School’s Cool
Over the last 22 years, St. Bart’s School’s Cool Ministry has partnered with Banyan Community to fill thousands of backpacks with school supplies and provide uniforms to youth in the Phillips
neighborhood of south Minneapolis. One of the many results of your support are the 70 graduates from DeLaSalle, a college prep high school!
It all starts with a backpack, uniform, and school supplies to ensure our K-12 youth are prepared to succeed in school. Banyan kids work hard and are supported by their parents and the Banyan programs year-round […]
Developing Community Since 1998
Banyan Community is rooted in the Phillips Neighborhood to transform lives by developing youth, strengthening families, and creating community. As a Christian community development organization, Banyan believes that when youth, family, and community are synchronized the greatest progress is made on education and poverty.
