The mission of the Center itself is �o minister to the basic survival needs of the disadvan2aeed people of the community throu�h the disvibution of food and clothing and by providin� advocacy, education, employment shelter, information, and referral usistancz. The primary emphasis of the Cencer and the or�anizarion is developing self- esteem, self-pride, and setf-moti-vacion in thz whole pzcson, enabling them to become produccive members of our communirv and this societv. CNII Ine. was formed in 1939 to in�oduce bvo pro�iams for African-American hi�h school youth -Black Teens for AdvancmenC (BT�1) and Sisters In ttte Stru��le for Survival (SISS). Today, the programs have joined together under one name, $TA. to show additional unity be[ween males and femalzs. This pro�am helps youth develop appropriate values and behaviors, and promote community service through a basic understandina of their history. To encouraQe academic e�cellencz, C�II Ir.c. developed the Educational Exceller•ce Incenrive Program (EEIP) to provide monetary awards ro parcicipatin� students who achieve specific �rade percentaae increases and attendance increases during the second semesczr or the fourth qusaer. We also created the BTA Scholars pro�ram that is offered to BTA �raduatin� seniors. This prooram works with our seniors once they have selzcted and have been acceptzd at any posc-secondary or vocacional institutionai, and assist them in either findin� the financial aid they need or we provide small granrs or toans to help them make it through the first yeaz. As part of our reachin� ou[ to the community, CNII, [nc., ttuough the vision of one of our advisors, devzloned the �tinnesota Panthers Youth Athle[ic Pro�ram which draws youth, ases I I-l3, into a scructured, amateur Athletic Union-sanctioned basketball program.

The mission of the Center itself is �o minister to the basic survival needs of the disadvan2aeed people of the community throu�h the disvibution of food and clothing and by providin� advocacy, education, employment shelter, information, and referral usistancz. The primary emphasis of the Cencer and the or�anizarion is developing self- esteem, self-pride, and setf-moti-vacion in thz whole pzcson, enabling them to become produccive members of our communirv and this societv. CNII Ine. was formed in 1939 to in�oduce bvo pro�iams for African-American hi�h school youth -Black Teens for AdvancmenC (BT�1) and Sisters In ttte Stru��le for Survival (SISS). Today, the programs have joined together under one name, $TA. to show additional unity be[ween males and femalzs. This pro�am helps youth develop appropriate values and behaviors, and promote community service through a basic understandina of their history. To encouraQe academic e�cellencz, C�II Ir.c. developed the Educational Exceller•ce Incenrive Program (EEIP) to provide monetary awards ro parcicipatin� students who achieve specific �rade percentaae increases and attendance increases during the second semesczr or the fourth qusaer. We also created the BTA Scholars pro�ram that is offered to BTA �raduatin� seniors. This prooram works with our seniors once they have selzcted and have been acceptzd at any posc-secondary or vocacional institutionai, and assist them in either findin� the financial aid they need or we provide small granrs or toans to help them make it through the first yeaz.

The mission of the Center itself is �o minister to the basic survival needs of the disadvan2aeed people of the community throu�h the disvibution of food and clothing and by providin� advocacy, education, employment shelter, information, and referral usistancz. The primary emphasis of the Cencer and the or�anizarion is developing self- esteem, self-pride, and setf-moti-vacion in thz whole pzcson, enabling them to become produccive members of our communirv and this societv. CNII Ine. was formed in 1939 to in�oduce bvo pro�iams for African-American hi�h school youth -Black Teens for AdvancmenC (BT�1) and Sisters In ttte Stru��le for Survival (SISS). Today, the programs have joined together under one name, $TA. to show additional unity be[ween males and femalzs. This pro�am helps youth develop appropriate values and behaviors, and promote community service through a basic understandina of their history. To encouraQe academic e�cellencz, C�II Ir.c. developed the Educational Exceller•ce Incenrive Program (EEIP) to provide monetary awards ro parcicipatin� students who achieve specific �rade percentaae increases and attendance increases during the second semesczr or the fourth qusaer. We also created the BTA Scholars pro�ram that is offered to BTA �raduatin� seniors. This prooram works with our seniors once they have selzcted and have been acceptzd at any posc-secondary or vocacional institutionai, and assist them in either findin� the financial aid they need or we provide small granrs or toans to help them make it through the first yeaz. As part of our reachin� ou[ to the community, CNII, [nc., ttuough the vision of one of our advisors, devzloned the �tinnesota Panthers Youth Athle[ic Pro�ram which draws youth, ases I I-l3, into a scructured, amateur Athletic Union-sanctioned basketball program.
