Local Prosperity Councils
Our OneUSDA customer service initiative is preparing USDA to deliver unparalleled, effective assistance to the many sectors of our rural communities. This success, along with local commitment and effort, will allow us to establish community models throughout America that can be replicated across the country.
As we identify these communities, we will help establish a “Local Prosperity Council” that will identify the key challenges facing their citizens. This cornerstone approach will involve leaders from the faith-based, political, education, business, and other key sectors.
