WAEM Town Tango Takes First Step

Your Town Alabama is in the news again. (Anytime you notice Your Town in the news, please let us know at info@yourtownalabama.org.)

Your Town Alabama has been working with small towns for 10 years.  The West Alabama – East Mississippi (WAEM) Regional Initiative is seeking ways to help its small towns be more competitive.  As a result, WAEM and Your Town are partnering to bring a new program to the WAEM Region.  It is called “WAEM Town.”

“WAEM Town will greatly resemble Your Town,” explained Bill Crawford, director of the WAEM Regional Initiative.  “But while it embodies the best of Your Town, WAEM Town will also add steps from Mississippi’s Main Street Program and from recent initiatives by the Appalachian Regional Commission.”
