Posted 5/17/2024 (updated 6/30/2025)

The resource LEVELING UP: A Guide for Optimizing the Impact of Your RCORP Consortium to Support Rural Recovery was developed by RCORP-TA and is designed to support RCORP project directors and teams in effectively structuring, leading, and managing consortia throughout the award period and beyond. This guide is relevant for both new and seasoned project directors and for consortia all along the developmental continuum. Its ultimate goal is to help project directors and their rural partners achieve optimal levels of collaboration that will set them up for success in achieving collective goals related to the health and recovery of their communities and sustaining that success over time. The guide has six sections that correspond to a 6-Level Scaffold for Optimizing Consortium Impact.

A companion slide deck, LEVELING UP: Optimizing the Impact of Your RCORP Consortium to Support Rural Recovery, is also available.
