Eight of 10 distressed communities are rural, and 60% of the residents in those counties are people of color
Rural Ohio towns could see boosts in economic development projects, and investments in workforce development, emergency preparedness and water and sewer facilities, under recently introduced congressional legislation.
Sara Morgan, president of the Federation of Appalachian Housing Enterprises, said the bill would funnel much needed resources and support to rural communities facing different challenges. The legislation also includes launching a Rural Future Corps, a program intended to place AmeriCorps Fellows in rural communities and help these communities expand critical services such as child care, health, nutrition assistance, education and job training, and would incentive members to remain in rural regions after their year of service.
