Scholarships are available to full time community and economic development practitioners representing rural communities, tribes and non-profit organizations. Since scholarships are limited, only one will be given to any one community or organization.

Scholarships may cover up to $575 for tuition costs.  Applicants must provide lodging and travel.  Please do not pay your tuition until a final decision has been received on your application.

Two scholarships are available to Idaho participants in honor of our beloved friend and colleague Pat Madarieta. Pat worked tirelessly to assist rural communities in Idaho with his wisdom, quiet grace and big heart. July 5, 1950 - October 22, 2009.
