River Housing Authority helped to organize an summer clean-up
project at the Father Diaferio Housing Development off of Locust Street
in the city's north side on July 13, 2007. The event involved residents,
housing unit community police officers, youth outreach workers and
representatives of Kool Smiles and the HealthFirst Family Care Center
who were on hand to provide information on health and dental services
available to development residents. The day also included heart-healthy
games for children, including sack races, bean bag toss and a pitch and
putt game. To see other activities that take place in the housing
