USDA Rural Development Best Practices Net Meeting Facilitation

Yellow Wood Associates, Inc. facilitated nine net meetings with USDA State Rural Development staff to share stories about projects/activities that have contributed to community capacity building, leveraging, and partnerships, and that represent a new way of doing business for USDA Rural Development. The result was a compilation of “stories from the states” for the Washington office of USDA Rural Development Policy and Planning.
