Description

The purpose of the Franklin County Community Development Corporation is to stimulate a more vital, rural economy, to maximize community control over our future economic destiny, and to expand opportunities for low and moderate-income residents.While the potential full community we serve covers the 26 towns of Franklin County plus 4 towns in the north Quabbin area, the individual communities we serve are both location based (for example, sub-regions, towns and villages) and communities of interest (for example, new entrepreneurs, small food processors, employees and employers).We are community-driven because we want to help residents and other stakeholders identify what they need and whether and how to use our resources and skill-sets to help them achieve it. We support economic development through community organizing methods, facilitating self-empowerment of individuals and local groups. We also apply a community-oriented focus to our own operations.
