RHCDA is sponsoring Green Jobs and Eco-Development, a free event featuring speaker Baye Adofo-Wilson, tomorrow, October 13, 2009, from 5:30 to 7:30 at the St. Louis Community College Meramec Campus. Be sure to join USGBC-STL and St. Louis Community College for this free program on the creation of a sustainable, diverse community called the Lincoln Park Coast Cultural District. This eco-village has revitalized a once abandoned, crumbling neighborhood in Newark, NJ which now boasts a workforce training program with an 80% placement rate and an annual music festival drawing thousands of people to the community. More information about the event can be found at: http://greenjobsecodevelopment.eventbrite.com/

"Since our first partnership with RHCDA helped us create the Lillian Park development of mixed-income quality housing, crime in that neighborhood has declined by more than 50% and residents feel like they can sit on their front porches again. It feels like a community. And even though that partnership was initiated some years ago, RHCDA is still very much engaged in that neighborhood, helping us to serve our residents and keep them involved." - Toni Cousins, Executive Director, Riverview-West Florissant Development Corporation |
