Thousands of young people, including college and high school students took time off from school and work, gave up their vacations and helped and supported the victims of Katrina. They were outraged and disappointed at how the government responded to the devastation and the overall conditions that people had to endure. This research is a tribute to these youth and the movements they have started.

We are conducting research that captures the efforts following Hurricane Katrina of (1) the Hiphop community (2) young people (under 35) and (3) organizations that have a relationship to either of these communities.

As the research continues, we will release and continue to update Fact Sheets that include some of the general information that we have gathered.
