Advocating for Rural Communities: Highlights from the 2025 Washington, D.C. Fly-In

The 2025 Washington, D.C. Fly-In took place on February 24–28, 2025! This annual event is a time for the entire Rural Community Assistance Partnership (RCAP) network to meet with elected officials and ensure effective coordination around federal priorities for RCAP assistance.
We engaged with government representatives about the critical importance of water, wastewater, and solid waste solutions, as well as our work implementing comprehensive economic development initiatives.
We are able to offer these complementary and affordable services with funds available to our organization through government grants and contracts we administer. Our efforts leverage millions of additional dollars annually for the people and areas we assist.
We created a virtual presentation to enhance our conversations. From projects and trainings to case studies and staff locations, viewers can search the data by a number of different criteria. Check it out here: https://bit.ly/2025-Fly-In-Storyraise
