T.J. Jones, a member of the Center for Fathering, says these services all work toward the same goal. And when you've got healthy people doing healthy things, you help other people, who are unhealthy, to be healthy. The center will be located between 29th Street and Lake and between Clinton Avenue and Fourth Avenue. Urban Ventures' communication specialist Todd Svanoe looks at the site from the top of the Fourth Avenue bridge. Carved on the bridge is a quote by John F. Kennedy, which is of particular importance to Urban Ventures.
Every generation needs to build a bridge for the next generation.
Although the organization doesn't have the money to build the center, Erickson is confident that foundations and corporations will get behind the project. He also says that the endorsement by Powell will make it easier for them to raise the money. Major funding for Minnesota Public Radio's regional Internet activities is provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
