Indiana County Thrives
The Indiana County Thrives Initiative is a community-driven effort aimed at building a sustainable and equitable future for coal-impacted communities in Indiana County. By developing strategic plans, securing funding, and enhancing local capacity, we support economic transitions and workforce development, ensuring that every individual has the opportunity to thrive in a changing economy.
The Center's Film Series
The Center for Community Growth's Film Series, ongoing since 2013, features powerful stories of communities navigating various social, economic, and environmental transitions.
