Richland County Community Development Honored Nationally for Local Initiatives

Richland County Community Development (RCCD) was presented with a national award for its continued efforts to improve local communities with several projects and initiatives. The John A. Sasso Award—named after the founder of the National Community Development Association—was presented to RCCD during a national conference held in Arlington, Texas. This is the third time Richland County has been honored with the award, which recognizes organizations that make great efforts to promote and celebrate community development grants and partnerships during National Community Development Week.

To round out National Community Development Week, RCCD also sponsored a countywide employee donation and gave the collection of items to Sistercare Women’s Shelter, which assists victims of domestic violence and their children in need of temporary homes.

Kudos to you Richland County Community Development!
