Empower Rural Iowa Task Forces

The Governor’s Empower Rural Iowa Initiative created a partnership with the Iowa Rural Development Council, which created three task forces, that develop recommendations for the Governor prior to each legislative session:

  • Investing in Rural Iowa - created to address the rural housing shortage and develop strategies to support rural businesses and entrepreneurs
  • Growing Rural Iowa - created to address leadership, recruitment and retention in rural communities
  • Connecting Rural Iowa - created to address the issue of financing broadband connectivity
