The Rural Community Assistance Program comprises six regional agencies whose goal is to develop the capability of rural community officials to solve their own local water and wastewater problems. Funded for more than nine years by various federal, state, and private sources, the program agencies offer region‐specific technical assistance and training and work to improve federal and state government response to the needs of rural communities.
