USDA. Enhancing rural capacities to strengthen economic development and community resililience. 2023-2024. In collaboration with the University of Maine and the University of Southern Maine.  The project is designed to achieve two long-term goals: (1) improve understanding of factors that enhance rural community capacity and (2) enhance rural capacitybuilding to strengthen rural economic opportunities and community resilience. Specifically, the project focuses on approaches to improve understanding of the capacity of rural communities to apply for and make use of grants and provide digital municipal services.

The Social Resilience Project. With changing climate conditions, coastal Maine faces more frequent and more severe weather events, bringing flooding, high wind impacts, and damage to road and electric infrastructure to our communities.  The Social Resilience Project creates dialogue and connections between the groups that play a role in preparing for, responding to, and recovering from these events as well as supporting and reducing the impacts on community members experiencing heightened social vulnerability. The project examined the role of scenario planning exercises in facilitating cross-sector collaborations. .
