The University of the Incarnate Word broke ground earlier this week on a 3,360-sf expansion of the 1,200-sf Presa Community Center. Staffed with UIW faculty and students, the expansion will house a permanent office and resource center providing tutoring and mentoring programs, computer literacy classes, and small-business assistance. A Department of Housing and Urban Development grant is funding the $228,453 project. The Presa Community Center originated as a facility providing social services and helping families to become self-sufficient.
