News from CADDO Parish

Back in July, LEJCOC board members took a party bus to a ADR workshop hosted by Residents for Air Neutralization (R.A.N) in Shreveport, LA. During that workshop, Dr. Warren delivered his proposal for the “Healthy Helping Hands lead to Healthy Helping Minds” Campaign. The workshop attendants listened and eagerly embraced Dr. Warren’s program. Later, R.A.N. along with LEJCOC backing them for support hosted a community meeting, which industry, nor the local politician were a “no-show“. However , this did not stop the meeting. The community discussed the issues and came up with ways to begin to correct their current problems. Meanwhile a group of Caddo Parish youth came into the afternoon meeting singing and dancing to “Everybody Get Your Roll on. Everybody, Everybody Get Your Roll on”. This was a great treat for the attendants and the kids were asked for an encore. Congratulations R.A.N. on your unity and willingness to continue your fight, despite your adversities.
