Abstract
This study seeks to produce recommendations to improve the mental health and well-being of male youth in the neighborhood of Allison Hill, Harrisburg and the surrounding areas through youth-driven surveying, photovoice analysis and policy-oriented presentations. Our work will procure a wealth of information pertaining to challenges and opportunities for positive youth development in poverty-ridden areas and add to a growing field researching ways to improve mental health and wellness outcomes for minorities and underprivileged communities. Our research takes place in two different parts.
