Program/Event Details:
Held event at Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County a community-based, family-centered, human services agency serving Johnson County, Iowa, since 1973. They operate two community centers in Iowa City and provide outreach and programming to an additional five targeted neighborhoods and a dozen schools.
