Come for breakfast with Jonathan Bradford to hear about a career in urban development, housing and non-profit management! We provide the breakfast and the interesting guest – you get to hear about different career options, ask questions, and expand your horizons!
Jonathan Bradford recently retired from a long career in housing, community development, policy and urban planning. For over 34 years, he served as the executive director of the Inner City Christian Federation in Grand Rapids, dedicated to providing quality housing opportunities for low-income people. Bradford pioneered ICCF’s program of buying old houses nobody wanted, rebuilding them to middle class standards with federal funding and then moving in low-income families. ICCF now also provides home ownership, home maintenance, finance, and other classes, as well as operating an emergency shelter for homeless families, working to help low-income individuals get mortgage assistance, building new housing units which blend market rate and assisted housing in the same development, and more.
This event has limited attendance, and you must RSVP to Ellen Hekman (elh4@calvin.edu) to attend – sign up NOW!
