Advancing Rural Prosperity: Policy Strategies to Support Equitable Development in Rural Communities

 

Developed by ChangeLab Solutions in partnership with The Praxis Project, Advancing Rural Prosperity: Policy Strategies to Support Equitable Development in Rural Communities will guide leaders in promoting equitable economic development in rural places across the country. The brief offers strategies that have the highest potential to meaningfully affect rural BIPOC communities experiencing persistent poverty. This resource is for state, local, and tribal policymakers; grassroots and community-based organizations; nonprofits; and philanthropic organizations interested in wealth building and place-based development.

This brief is part of a suite of resources from ChangeLab Solutions to support local and state policymakers, community organizations, and changemakers in advancing racial equity and rural prosperity across the United States. These resources are part of the Toward Better Rural Futures project, which aims to foster greater collaboration and alignment across local, regional, and state levels of government, equipping leaders with the tools and knowledge to fundamentally shift power, opportunity, and resources in order to create healthy rural places where everyone can thrive.
