Rural Partners of Illinois – Oct 24th Community Showcase Growth Through Collaboration
Back by popular demand, Rural Partners of Illinois is hosting a Community Showcase at the Wright Family Center in Dieterich, IL. The Village of Dieterich is a MAPPING Community that has welcomed over a 44% increase in population between decennial censuses and reversed a 13-year decline in school enrollment to a 48% increase over the last 15-years.
Join us on October 24th at 10:30am to hear about the Village of Dieterich’s collaborative strategy for community and economic development. Village Clerk Brittny Gipson will speak towards their proactive approach for residential, business, and community development. Following the presentation, attendees will hear a panel discussion involving representation from the Village of Dieterich, Dieterich Unit 30, and the local business community.
