The Rural Welcoming Initiative

A Call for Applications!

Welcoming America is pleased to offer a new opportunity for rural communities to engage more deeply in welcoming and inclusion work. Through a new Rural Welcoming Initiative, selected nonprofit organizations and local governments will have the chance to receive technical assistance and coaching, draw on the tools and resources available to Welcoming Network members, and act as peer leaders by sharing good ideas and receiving national recognition for their welcoming efforts. Members of this cohort will also have the opportunity to connect with and learn from each other both virtually and in-person at Welcoming America’s national conference, the Welcoming Interactive, that will be held in Charlotte, NC June 3-5, 2020.
