Rural Prosperity Nebraska

Rural Prosperity Nebraska helps Nebraska's rural communities thrive. Extension Educators work across the state in six different focus areas: Community Engagement, People Attraction, Community Development Leadership, Community Economic Development, Placemaking, and Regional food systems. These areas allow for a holistic approach to economic development that also takes into account the need for strong leaders, inviting gathering places, and a robust network of both businesses and services to meet the needs of the community.
