Housing is a challenge everywhere, and finding housing offers unique challenges in small, rural communities. In August, Montana State University Extension hosted a webinar on rural housing featuring Reimagining Rural speaker Ben Winchester. Over 70 attendees from across Montana, who watched the webinar, generated specific questions related to rural housing.
As a result, a follow-up webinar series has been created to address those housing questions. Montana State University Extension and NeighborWorks Montana, a statewide housing nonprofit corporation, is offering the webinar series designed to seek solutions to rural housing challenges.
Topics and dates include:
• Oct 25: Where to Start on Housing in Your Community
• Nov 30: Improving Aging Housing Stock, Maintaining Supply
• Jan 25: Developing New Homes, Increasing Supply
• Feb 22: TBD based on interest of participants
The no-host lunch webinar series will be held in the Courthouse Election Room in Broadus. The webinar series is a great opportunity to gather people to listen and watch together to continue a community discussion on housing.
