Mr. Bryan also highlighted the importance of public-private partnerships and community involvement in improving the quality of life for residents of Herbert Grigg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt takes a community to come together to take care of our seniors. It\u2019s an offering of warm comfort by a friend, having these means of communications,” he said. “I remember going door-to-door in the aftermath of hurricanes Irma and Maria and seeing so many of our seniors with their radios and seeing how much they rely on radio and television for important information. Thank you to VIYA, the Department of Human Services, and all the partners in the community who came together to make this happen.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
