SUMMARY:DeKalb County Rural Vitality Summit
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, June 16th from 4:00 – 6:00 PM at the Kishwaukee College Conference Center for the DeKalb County Rural Vitality Summit! No cost\, but please RSVP by June 9! \n\n\n\nDCEDC has formed the Rural Vitality Committee to address the needs of DeKalb County’s rural communities. The committee is comprised of countywide organizations invested in promoting community development and livability. The initiative will balance resources to better serve smaller communities based on the DeKalb County Community Foundation’s (DCCF) recent research\, additional input from community leaders\, and examples of success from elsewhere. This introduction provides information on the committee and how it can help your community. \n\n\n\nThe expressed mission of the DeKalb County Rural Vitality Committee is to work with businesses\, public officials\, and community leaders to strengthen the economic vitality and appeal of rural DeKalb County. The committee will foster regional collaboration\, identify resources\, guide projects or plans\, and empower local participation in community development. \n\n\n\nThese efforts will generate opportunities for each community to grow local capacity to develop\, manage\, and sustain a strong economic base\, improve livability\, and enhance its physical assets\, particularly downtown. \n\n\n\nWho should attend?\n\n\n\nThe target audience includes rural municipal leaders\, community leaders\, organizational leaders\, residents — everyone who wants to be involved in their community planning and revitalization. Attendees will also learn about efforts to bring back the “Community Champions” initiative. \n\n\n\nRefreshments will be served. Summit Agenda coming soon! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRural Vitality Committee Members: \n\n\n\nMelissa Amedeo\, DCEDC; Mike Carpenter\, RVG Commercial; Michelle Donahoe\, DeKalb Co.
