SKILLMATION was our first StrongerTowns program. The goal of this activity is to form mentorship connections that bridge the economic, educational, and age barriers that divide rural communities. Our unique website technology and hand built relationships with local schools, organizations allow for sharing skills, experiences, and viewpoints across our community.

We Want Your Great Idea to be our Next Program
Founded in 2016, StrongerTowns already has 4 active programs underway and is evaluating a handful more. For a program to be a good fit with StrongerTowns, it must be innovative in its approach to solving a problem of high social impact. The idea can be brand new, fresh, and unproven - but the application of the idea must be able to be replicated on a national scale in rural communities once it has been successfully tested locally.
