Construction students tackle wheelchair ramp project

Students in John Doane’s construction class will be hard at work this week building a wheelchair ramp on the southeast side of Grand Rapids. They will start building on Thursday and continue on October 13 and 14 if needed.

This is the fourth year that GRCC construction classes have worked with Home Repair Services, a nonprofit organization that provides resources, repairs, a tool lending library and hands-on workshops to lower-income homeowners in Kent County.
