An incredible opportunity for Ritzville is being provided by both the Horizons Program and Northwest Area Foundation.
The Horizons program is about the changes a community can make to move from poverty to hope, from population and economic decline to prosperity. This initiative is for rural communities of fewer than 5,000 and with poverty rates of at least 10 percent.
Open to all community members, Horizons focuses on practical strategies and tools. More specifically, it provides locally-delivered training, skill-building, and coaching to strengthen community leadership and civic engagement systems. Experience has shown that small communities can thrive if they have a strong leadership system.
Northwest Area Foundation identifies, shares and advocates "what’s working" to reduce poverty for the long term. Our foundation partners with select communities in Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon, providing technical assistance and financial resources through our Ventures, Horizons, and Connections programs. We also cooperate with other organizations and communities to gather and share practical knowledge.
For more information on how you can participate in upcoming leadership training opportunities, contact any of the team members. They will be happy to give you more details! Take a leap, jump on the bus, be a leader....join this Horizon's group.
