Newsletter Archive: Growing Stronger Economies in Our Nation’s Coal Communities

Note:  This page is no longer updated as of October 2019 

Welcome to the archive page of “Growing Stronger Economies in Our Nation’s Coal Communities.” This curated bi-weekly newsletter is a joint resource from the National Association of Counties (NACo) and the National Association of Development Organizations (NADO) Research Foundation.  NACo and NADO are collaborating on a POWER technical assistance grant generously provided by the US Economic Development Administration’s Denver Regional Office.

This publication expands on NACo and NADO’s previous newsletter, “Building Stronger Economies in Appalachian Coal Country,” to provide a national perspective on diversification efforts in coal communities across the country, resources and funding opportunities, and upcoming events and trainings to support your work in a variety of areas to improve economic development, infrastructure, and quality of life in your region.  It will be delivered every other Wednesday.

If you would like to join the mailing list, send an e-mail to Brett Schwartz at bschwartz@nado.org.  We welcome your feedback on content and ideas and encourage you to share this newsletter with your colleagues and partners.  Thanks for reading!
