Register Today for AEO's Rural Pathways: Engaging Rural Poli

On Monday, July 16th, at 1:00 p.m. EDT, AEO will host Rural Pathways: Engaging Rural Policy Makers, the*fourth in a series of five webinars focusing on a range of strategies for supporting rural business and building pathways to thriving rural economies.
*
To better serve entrepreneurs, many rural organizations are discovering that they need to work closely with policy makers—whether city or county officials or state legislative or agency staff—to ensure that microentrepreneurs are provided the support they need to flourish and contribute to rural economies.*
*
You will leave this webinar with:

• 3 distinct examples of policy initiatives, and strategies most suited for each
• a technique for quickly mapping your policy network and identifying “keystone” individuals critical to your policy success
• a checklist of organizational capacities needed for effective policy work and how you can enhance those capacities
