Join a Network

RDN facilitates dialogue, partnerships, and resource-sharing among rural communities and community based organizations from coast to coast to coast. One of the ways we do this is by hosting networks, whose members meet periodically to share information, ideas, and learn from each other.

The Alberta Rural Coalition on Housing and Homelessness (ARCH2) is Alberta-based and strives to offer a safe space for communities and community-based organizations, including service providers, to share their experiences working across complex systems and discuss barriers that impact service provision. Important information learned through the network continues to strengthen advocacy efforts, as it is shared with various levels of government and funders.  

The Canadian Association on Rural and Remote Housing and Homelessness (CARHH) is Canada-wide and brings communities and community-based organizations together to share experiences, including what is and is not working when addressing and developing responses to housing and homelessness issues. CARRHH aims to prevent communities from working in silos, encourage collaboration and facilitate resource and information sharing among members working in the housing and homelessness sector in smaller communities across the country.  

The Canadian Rural Collaborative (CRC) aims to facilitate partnerships, information sharing, and help build capacity between organizations working to address economic development and social issues in a rural context across Canada.
