The Shawnee News-Star
Shawnee native and former governor of Oklahoma Brad Henry will have his name on a building in Tulsa, Rev. W.R. Casey Jr., president and CEO of the Christian Ministers Alliance, said recently.
The Christian Ministers Alliance, he explained, wants to build a youth center and a childcare center in north Tulsa, where they hope to help fight violence, crime, and drugs, as well as helping those in the community with their GEDs, teen pregnancy, programs for single mothers, children who have dropped out of school, and others. The two facilities will cost a total of $7.5 million.
