Abstract
States now have an unprecedented opportunity to help rural communities help themselves by providing rural communities with data and technology, offering technical assistance, and encouraging them to develop comprehensive plans. The process starts with the recognition that rural comprehensive planning need not simply imply containing urban growth, preserving unprofitable farming activity, or economic development in isolated small towns.
