Our Mission

 
RPC is dedicated to:
  • providing educational and professional development opportunities;
  • improving rural and small town planning awareness among both local and state officials, citizens and other professional organizations; and
  • promoting legislation that does not result in an undue burden on rural localities.

2023-24 Sponsorship Opportunities

 

We would like to invite you to be a sponsor of the 2023 Annual Conference organized by the Executive Committee of the Rural Planning Caucus of Virginia, which will be held from October 18-20, 2023 at the historic Mountain Lake Lodge in Pembroke, Virginia.  The Annual Rural Planning Caucus of Virginia Conference provides access to a target audience of rural planning and local government professionals from across Virginia.  RPC attendees are leaders in the rural planning profession and are often the decision makers in local government administration. 
 
Becoming a sponsor is easy. We offer sponsorships at multiple price-points. The following is an overview of the 2023-24 sponsorship options.  Sponsorship payment may be made online or by sending a check (address on the sponsorship application).

Sponsoring the RPC Conference will provide your organization an increased level of exposure in front of many rural planning professionals who will see your organization both during the conference and afterwards on RPC's website.  Your sponsorship is an easy and affordable way to promote your organization, program or institution to a targeted professional audience while supporting the continued development of resilient rural communities and the RPC of Virginia.  If RPC Virginia's mission and values align with your organization's values, we encourage you to contact us about exploring sponsorship options.  

A large majority of the RPC conference participants are decision-makers in their universities, local governments, organizations or businesses.  Many are active in multiple sectors, holding roles in other professional, non-profit and community settings.  RPC intentionally involves and encourages participants and presenters from multiple sectors who share a commitment to learning from and with one another about rural planning.  

Network with attendees in relaxed settings, and enjoy first-class surroundings in which to showcase your organization's services.  RPC sponsorship positions your group as a leader at a time when decision-makers are eager to learn, and ready to find ways help their organization succeed.
