RHCDA Sponsors Green Jobs Event Tomorrow, October 13 PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 12 October 2009 13:06

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/

 

RHCDA is Regional Housing and Community Development Alliance, a nonprofit organization that creates and supports the alliances that make smart, sustainable neighborhood revitalization possible in the St. Louis region.

"It is safe to say that RHCDA has helped save several St. Louis neighborhoods by taking on financially troubled housing, developed and previously managed by others.  RHCDA has really made a difference to the city and to investors who are interested in helping to preserve and develop housing in the city."
