Our Mission:
Empower
We empower rural communities to effect change by creating opportunities in education, economic development, and youth empowerment to improve quality of life and place.
THRIVING RURAL COMMUNITIES
Rural Community Alliance members have a vision for just and thriving rural communities that offer access to an excellent education, economic opportunity, and rewarding quality of life to all residents.
RCA members believe change happens through informed and organized residents defining the change they want, building collective power, and taking action to improve their lives.

We work to bring about change in communities with a process that starts with assessment and visioning, then strategic planning and implementation–all led and controlled by the grassroots. RCA staff supports community members with information, resources, and training.
