It's almost like 902 ManUp is whatever it's needed to be, and that's the magic of it. Halifax’s 902 ManUp is a community group that was created in response to gun violence. 902 ManUp board member and long-time community member Shawn Parker says the low-income community around Uniacke has a rich but turbulent history. From Mulgrave Park down the street, to Lucasville north of Halifax, to the Prestons across the harbour, 902 ManUp has expanded to serve a number of neighbourhoods. Trayvone Clayton has given his father, James, some ideas for making 902 ManUp relevant to younger members of the community.
