PRYSM

We are pleased to announce the release of “The Quality of Life for Southeast Asian Youth in Providence” by Providence Youth Movement (PrYSM).   The report has been 4-years in the making, and includes data from the Southeast Asian Youth Survey, conducted by PrYSM youth back in 2006.  The survey interviewed over 360 Southeast Asian youth living in Providence, RI.  DataCenter provided support and training for the project.   It will be released at S.E.A. The Future, a conference which will take place on May 15-16, 2010, at the MET -Peace Street Campus.   The convening is historical and is the first initiative to bring together a large sector of Southeast Asian community leadership in Rhode Island – they are expecting to bring together 140-150 youth and adult leaders, stakeholders, and decision-makers.
