Sen. Jansen, Comcast, volunteers build ramp in Rockford
First MMAP project completed, providing greater independence for local woman

LANSING — A Kent County woman and her family have greater independence thanks to the “Michigan Mobility & Accessibility Partnership.” A group of dedicated volunteers today built a wheelchair-accessible ramp at the home of Lori B* in Rockford, the first of five such scheduled builds this summer.

“Being able to freely come and go from your own home is something many of us take for granted,” said Sen. Mark C. Jansen, R-Gaines Township. “By joining forces with Comcast, Disability Advocates of Kent County and dedicated volunteers, today we helped improve mobility and accessibility for a Michigan family.” more
