Stevens FORWARD!

Stevens FORWARD! is a county effort among Donnelly, Chokio, Alberta, Morris and Hancock, Minnesota, to help ensure a successful future for all communities involved. By working with the Center for Community Stewardship (CCS), Stevens FORWARD! has been able to establish key stewards who are focused on and committed to carrying out the ideas, thoughts and dreams of creating a better way of life in Stevens County. These stewards are already helping develop and expand countywide partnerships, and every day more support grows to work together to enhance life throughout the entire county.

Stevens FORWARD! is utilizing the expertise and experience of CCS staff to organize goals, identify key areas for improvement and motivate community members – creating a significant start to the improvement process.

Stevens FORWARD! is not alone. Center for Community Stewardship staff also helped to initiate Bemidji Leads!, Progress Park Rapids and the Seventh Generation Initiative.
