Think Outside the Box: Coal Communities Embracing New Roles to Spark Economic Development
This webinar will be held via Zoom. If you have issues registering or accessing the webinar platform, please email nacomeetings@naco.org.
As coal regions work to diversify their economies, counties are taking on new roles and innovative approaches to their traditional responsibilities. Join the BRECC National Network this October to explore these new angles and learn how counties are supporting economic diversification through creative approaches in housing, community-engaged planning, economic development and strategic infrastructure investments. For more information on BRECC's National Network learning series and other programming, visit www.naco.org/brecc.
