Investing in Rural America: Asset-Based Approach to Rural Development
August 19 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT

Rural communities across the country have unique strengths: some boast stunning natural resources and outdoor spaces, others are home to residents with specialized skills, and many possess rich histories that influence local culture. By focusing on these assets, communities can foster growth and prosperity.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond’s Center for Rural Economies invites you to its upcoming Investing in Rural America webinar, which will highlight effective strategies for leveraging rural community assets.
Participants will benefit from practical insights and real-world examples that deepen their understanding of how to identify, map, and mobilize their community strengths, encouraging a shift away from concentrating solely on deficits and challenges.
