On Friday, April 24th, YNDC Executive Director participated in a meeting of the national steering committee for the National Resource Network in Kansas City, Kansas.
The national steering committee guides and advises the work of the National Resource Network.
The National Resource Network (the Network) is a core component of the Obama Administration’s Strong Cities, Strong Communities (SC2) initiative, and develops and delivers innovative solutions to American cities to help them address their toughest economic challenges. The Network works with local leaders to identify practical solutions, share real-world expertise and best practices, and help cities develop the tools and strategies they need to grow their economies.
Funded with $10 million from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Network is a national program that leverages the expertise, partnerships, and resources of the public and private sectors to help cities comprehensively tackle their most pressing challenges. The Network provides cities with customized tools and advice to build strategic partnerships, strengthen their economic competitiveness, and marshal public and private sector resources.
