Purpose

The Michigan Rural Readiness Network connects rural communities in Michigan with resources that advance their local priorities. Network opportunities will include access to regular peer connections, targeted training and technical assistance, and connections to resource providers. Participants will be invited to network convenings, readiness roundtables, trainings, and rural communities of practice. Communities with regular Rural Readiness Network engagement may also be eligible for other Rural Readiness Program supports including community coaching, grant navigation and microgrant funding.

Eligibility

Local Readiness Teams should consist of 3-8 individuals from a community who are interested in establishing or advancing priorities. Teams are typically cross-sector and include representation from one or more municipalities, community/workforce/ economic development organizations, and other nonprofit organizations.
