TRF provides funding for cross-cutting issues that have a broad impact for rural communities across the state, TRF selects priority signature issues that meet a deliberate criteria. We seek issues that:
o result from or produce authentic rural community engagement,
o directly address rural community-identified priorities,
o can only be done collectively or be significantly improved with a collective approach,
o offer the potential to be replicated in other parts of rural Texas (if geographically limited), and
o leverage policy partnerships being forged by TRF.
