Movement Building

The Resourceful Communities Program provides education and empowerment through on-going regional leadership and organizational development training workshops.

These trainings help build rural leaders’ capacity to sustain their organizations and advocate for "triple bottom line" policies and funding.  Sessions provide skill-building opportunities, peer education, and the opportunity to learn about similar challenges and efforts going on in other communities.

Planning and outreach with rural grassroots leaders helps RCP’s partners develop and implement strategies for educating policy- and decision-makers about “triple bottom line” approaches that are creating substantive social/ economic change in rural North Carolina.
