Haskell to host program promoting youth wellness services

The Haskell University Upward Bound program will host the “Upward Bound Powwow” on Thursday to promote its youth wellness services.

The program prepares low-income high school students for college by providing counseling, tutoring and mentoring. Participants of this summer’s Haskell Upward Bound’s five-week residential program will be at the event to share the skills they learned with the community.

College representatives will attend the event to provide information to students, and food vendors will be there as well. The dance begins at 6 p.m. at Haskell University, 155 Indian Ave., and is free to attend. For more information, call 785-749-8405.
