May Webinar:Rural Advocacy Strategies: Winning with Practical Tactics from the Inside Tired of getting blank stares or eyes glazed over discussing Rural development issues? Tired of settling for staff when you really need to talk to elected legislators? Tired of only 2% of venture capital going to Rural folks nationwide? Rep. Louis Riggs has been on both sides of the desk for decades as a grassroots leader and State Representative. His work on educating elected officials on the importance of broadband deployment in Missouri is nationally recognized. Please join us for a jam-packed session where he will outline practical, tactical and strategic steps you can learn and apply to punch above your weight in your State Capitol and in Washington, D.C. Day/Time: TBD
July Webinar:Overcoming Childcare Barriers: Solutions for Economic Development Addressing the childcare shortages is essential for enhancing workforce participation and fostering economic growth. In the US, over half of the population resides in “childcare deserts,” areas where the demand for childcare services significantly outpaces supply. This scarcity not only hinders parents’ ability to work but also affects local economies. For instance, studies indicate that improving access to affordable childcare could boost GDP by up to $7.5 billion. Join us for a presentation on innovative solutions and best practices from community leaders across the nation. Join Golden Shovel Agency, and learn how to expand childcare capacity, collaborate with key stakeholders, and leverage funding opportunities to make a lasting impact. Day/Time: July 23, 2025 2:00 p.m. ET/3:00 p.m. CT
