Communities and regions across the rural United States and Native nations
often must scramble to find and access *any* funding that can be used
*flexibly* to address locally determined community and economic development
priorities in ways that make local sense. Within the budget reconciliation
package – which is in active negotiation right now – a proposed *Rural
Partnership Program* (RPP) would make *just that kind* of funding available
across the country to regional and local collaboratives that can include a
wide range of non-profits, government entities, philanthropic
organizations, colleges and others. RPP represents a new approach for how
federal resources can support rural America.* Learn more here

.

As negotiations on the budget reconciliation bill continue in the coming
weeks, the RPP is at risk of being left out of the final package,
potentially leaving behind a transformational opportunity for rural America.

*Now* is the time to learn about it so that you can talk about it with
colleagues, the media and elected officials.

In this one-hour information session, the Reimagining Rural Assistance
Network (RRAN) will briefly offer current information about the provisions
and status of RPP. This session will also include the perspective of expert
rural practitioners who will share their thinking and experience about how
providing federal resources through an RPP approach could accelerate and
deepen positive rural development results. Please forward and share this
Info Session Alert with colleagues. Questions will be encouraged at the
event and all are welcome! Register Here
