Working together as a region

Regions where towns collaborate to build healthy communities create a synergy. A shared approach to implementing programs, funding, and activities can bring greater benefit to all, in a way that communities who work alone cannot. 

Funding opportunities

Please note that not all links will apply to your community. Each of the resources outlines unique qualifications and applies to specific geographies, community size, and so on. Please read through them to determine which best apply to your town, and see here for guidance on how to seek funding.
