The BAP is a $3.6m initiative of the University of Minnesota’s Urban Research and Outreach/Engagement Center (UROC) and its Office for Business and Community Economic Development (BCED), in collaboration with the Minnesota Multicultural Media Consortium, to improve high-speed internet (broadband) access, awareness, and use in four federally-designated poverty zones in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The project supports development and enhancements of 10 community-based public computer centers and one mobile computer lab for underserved populations, including African-Americans, Hispanics, and Hmong and Somali immigrants.
