How We Work

Resourceful Communities helps partners access resources and learn techniques to advance nontraditional, asset-based approaches to age-old problems such as environmental degradation, poverty and racism.

Every community is unique, and Resourceful Communities' efforts reflect this. We meet communities where they are.

Project Spotlight

NC's First Community Forest

Resourceful Communities is working with partners to establish NC's first community forest on a 532-acre parcel in Hoke County.

Community forestry engages local partners in planning, management and stewardship. Adjacent to forestlands with the second largest US population of the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker, this community forest will restore habitat, provide economic opportunities and more.
