The Smith OEDC provides organizational support and expertise to empower local communities
to leverage their outdoor recreation resources by partnering with local leaders,
non-profits, public groups and other recreation organizations.
For towns interested in getting involved in Ascend WV's remote worker program, the Smith OEDC and West Virginia Department of Tourism has curated a Community Playbook that will guide leaders through the five areas necessary to attract and retain remote workers as well as provide access to resources available to strengthen these areas.
