Investing in Rural America: Economic Development in Rural Communities
June 24 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm EDT

Building sustainable economic growth in rural communities requires vision, collaboration and strategic action. Yet, many communities face unique challenges that can hinder development, including limited infrastructure, workforce shortages, housing constraints, and access to resources.
Join the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond’s Center for Rural Economies for its next Investing in Rural America webinar, which will explore key strategies and approaches for advancing economic development in rural settings.
Through practical insights and real-world examples, participants will gain a broader understanding of the tools and resources available to support rural economic growth. We will discuss how communities can align local priorities with economic opportunities, overcome common barriers, and develop actionable strategies that reflect their distinct strengths and needs.
