Quincie Douglas became active in the Model Cities program that brought neighborhood centers, sidewalks, street lights. and neighborhood food programs to the poorer sections of Tucson. Her major accomplishment in Tucson was the Low Income Free Transportation Service (LIFTS) program that is still in operation today.You can see a LIFTS van in the mural above. The mural is outside the library entrance. This plaque is underneath: I visited in 2010 when there wasn't as much art. If you'd like to jump back, click on Quincie Douglas Center.
