"The likelihood of the RRCC being able to provide/expand needed programs and services in our community is made possible with grant funding from the Comunidad Grant. Our population from youth to seniors are directly impacted as rural communities face a challenge in accessibility to those programs in the community and not having to travel to the metropolitan areas for services and programs." -Oscar Pena, Rio Rico Community Center
