Join the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) and the Commonwealth of Virginia for their annual conference, Appalachia Envisioned: A New Era of Opportunity, as they unveil ARC’s new strategic plan, which turns feedback from community conversations, focus groups, and a public survey into actionable investment strategies that emphasize Appalachia’s strengths and helps communities overcome economic challenges. Attendees will hear about this strategic plan during a conversation with Federal Co-Chair Gayle Manchin and States’ Co-Chair Governor Ralph Northam.
The conference also features ARC partners who work daily to strengthen Appalachia through sectors like outdoor recreation, entrepreneurship development, and leadership and community capacity; shared with attendees through documentary-style videos and interactive sessions. Envision the future of Appalachia together and register today.
