In 2014, former President Barack Obama established the My Brother鈥檚 Keeper Task Force at the federal level. The Task Force was an interagency effort focused on closing and eliminating the opportunity gaps faced by boys and young men of color so that all young people have the chance to reach their full potential. With the adoption of the 2016鈥�17 New York State budget, New York became the first state to accept the President鈥檚 challenge and enacted the My Brother鈥檚 Keeper initiative into law. The budget included a $20 million investment supporting the initiative to improve outcomes for boys and young men of color.听

The听听provides leadership opportunities to rising high school seniors, with an emphasis on boys and young men of color. To date, New York State has inducted a total of 260 Fellows. Each is paired with a mentor from a New York State MBK Community Network partner and participates in a fellowship in a local government office, partnering business, or educational institute. Fellows develop service projects beneficial to the schools they attend and the communities they live in. 东京热无码 has awarded over $1.6 million in grant funds to support this program since 2016.听听
