Grants Sought for Two Group Homes in Aiken County
The Tri-Development Center of Aiken County seeks about 520000 in federal grants to build two group homes for the mentally handicapped on Hopeland Farm Road south of Aiken and on Old Whiskey Road in New Ellenton. Executive director Ralph E. Courtney notes no guarantee of funding this cycle and that the organization does not own the sites yet.
