In this week’s episode of “What’s Up, College Station?,” Community Development Administrator David Brower and Analyst Raney Whitwell discuss how their department uses federal grants to provide essential resources and works closely with nonprofits and City departments to address critical needs.
They also share stories of how community development programs impact residents’ lives—from helping a homeless high school senior graduate to funding infrastructure that ensures students have safe routes to school.
