Regards to Rural is a unique event for community members and leaders throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond to discuss rural priorities, explore innovative economic models, obtain tools to make change in communities, and inspire action to help pave the way to rural vitality. 

This year’s R2R features a rural funder panel, keynotes, a fireside chat, and networking opportunities. Breakout sessions are focused on collective leadership, rural support resources, innovative Main Street approaches, Latino engagement, economic development, resilience and energy, board diversity, rural policy, and more. Sessions will be geared toward providing practical tools for people to bring back and implement in their communities. The conference schedule and other information can be found on the event app. If you are registered for the conference, you will receive instructions for downloading the app so you can network with other attendees and keep R2R details at your fingertips.
