We need your help to make sure all young people in Biloxi have the best opportunities for success in school, life, and adulthood. Instead of beginning with all the things our community might need or want for young people, this website is designed to help us collect and map all the great things that already exist – - in other words, Biloxi’s “assets.” Once all the assets are on the map, we can take stock of what we’ve got, what might be missing, and how our community can work together to take advantage of our resources.

As a start, workshops were held on June 30, 2009 with youth and community leaders in Biloxi. Now, we invite you to contribute your thoughts online between July 1st - 22nd. What do you see as Biloxi’s most important assets for youth? You can also comment on the suggestions of your neighbors…
