Learning Communities
We identify, support, and inspire leaders building innovative solutions with their communities. Learning convenings and executive fellowships allow leaders exchange ideas with peers from around the country.
Leadership Development
Rural and small towns are often the drivers of innovation.
Supporting
We identify, support, and inspire rural leaders who are actively engaged in building rural partnerships or designing other innovative solutions with their communities.
Connecting
We foster learning communities where rural leaders engaged in similar partnership-building work share how to effectively deepen their efforts.
Leading
We host fellowships like LeadRural that allow rural leaders to participate in “Seeing is Believing” visits, meet experts in the field, bring new ideas to their communities, and showcase their efforts for other rural communities.
