Regional Development Organizations (RDOs), known locally as councils of governments, regional planning commissions, economic development districts, and other names, provide various types of assistance to their member communities in a host of service areas.

Through case studies, learn how these organizations collaborate with local municipalities to write and administer grant programs, conduct water planning efforts, and coordinate with state and federal partners.
