Other Online Resources
The Internet grows like
leafy spurge -- but unlike leafy spurge, the Internet can be useful.
It's a source of information and a way to network with people in other
communities in North Dakota and across America -- even the world.
We've found some good web sites to start with.
North
Dakota League of Cities
The North Dakota League
of Cities offers a wide range of leadership training to city officials.
The organization also provides service, advocacy, leadership, education
and support to the state's incorporated municipalities. Its web
site is a thorough guide to all of its offerings.
North
Dakota State Government
The North Dakota web
site features links to useful state government sites, many of which
contain links to other related sites on the web.

of Economic Development and Finance's web site provides a wealth
of information about the many programs and resources available for
communities and businesses. Plus, it contains numerous useful links.
Enhancing

survey and visioning effort conducted as part of North Dakota's
Vision 2000 and Growing North Dakota programs has brought to light
some ideas and recommendations that may help your community.

One challenge facing
communities is in retaining a workforce that will attract employers.
Project Back Home is a cooperative effort to match skilled North
Dakota alumni with work opportunities in the state.
USDA
The United States Department
of Agriculture's web site contains solid information and links to
topic specific sites such as USDA
