Idaho Horizons Community/Partnership Summit

The Idaho Horizons Community/Partnership Summit is an exciting and interactive opportunity to connect our Horizons communities with potential partners. We hope that the partnerships made during this summit will provide communities with valuable resources for completing their action items, as well as offer attending organizations the chance to develop and expand upon their services to rural
Idaho communities.
The Summit will include presentations by the Horizons communities on their action items and community visions, as well as guided networking sessions to connect the partners and commmunities. The community presentations will not only give the other Horizons communities, but partnering organizations as well, an idea of the upcoming work that will be done in the region.
