Project 2: An innovative community gathering and educational approach with soccer (or “football” as the rest of the world knows it) as the mechanism for engagement opportunities with refugee families placed in the Lansing area, RDC will work to engage new residents in planning focusing on neighbhorhood associations, parent teacher organizations and other local planning bodies.
