ST. BERNARD PRESIDENT CRAIG TAFFARO ANNOUNCES
FOOTSTEPS TO GROWTH PROGRAM
Program to acknowledge good works to continue the parish’s
forward progress
St. Bernard Parish Craig Taffaro has announced the Footsteps to
Growth Program as a way to recognize the good works in our
community and motivate others because the involvement of all
organizations and citizens becoming active is critical to the
recovery.
“Continuing our forward
movement takes energy,” Taffaro said. “The Footsteps to Growth
Program is not a cure-all and it will not erase the work left to
be done, but in a small and consistent way, it will let people
know about some of the good works that have been accomplished in
our community and motivate others to get or stay involved.”
Recommendations can be
made by completing a Footsteps to Growth Program form.
Nominations forms are online the parish government website at
www.sbpg.net or may be picked
up at the Parish Council office, 8201 W. Judge Perez Drive in
Chalmette. Return forms to
lduplessis@sbpg.net or to the parish president’s office. Any
citizen, civic organization, government employee, business, or
non-profit official is eligible. The first round of recognition
will be made at the first council meeting in July and then at
the first council meeting of the month thereafter. A short
reception for the recipients will be held prior to the meeting.
