The Stellar Pathways program provides resources for transformative quality of place improvements.
INDIANAPOLIS – Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch and the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs today announced four regions as finalists for the 2024 Stellar Pathways Program.
Among the finalists is One Dearborn County: Stellar Pathways for Indiana Gateways, which includes Dearborn County Economic Development Corporation, Dearborn County, Dillsboro, and Greendale.
OCRA selected the four finalists from 19 submissions. Finalists were chosen based on each region’s demonstrated ability to collaborate, communicate effectively, implement projects, address challenges, secure additional funding, and engage the community.
As finalists, each region will receive $50,000 to put towards the development of its final strategic investment plan. Each region will also receive a customized one-day workshop with Ball State University’s Indiana Communities Institute on August 12 to discuss project alignment and continued planning efforts.
"The Stellar Pathways program empowers communities to invest in transformative improvements, and these four regions have displayed the vision required of a Stellar project,” said Lt. Gov. Crouch, Indiana’s Secretary of Agriculture and Rural Development. “All four of these teams have not only understood, but embraced the challenge of collaboration which is an important foundation for improving quality of life for Hoosiers in their communities.”
The Stellar Pathways program provides resources for transformative quality of place improvements by applying previous planning efforts, leveraging existing assets, fostering regional investments and stimulating continued growth.
