About the Collaborative:
The
Capital Region Collaborative
is a cooperative effort to engage government, business and community
stakeholders in a process of identifying, prioritizing and implementing actions
that will enhance the quality of life in the Richmond Region. The Collaborative
was created as a partnership between the
Richmond Regional Planning District Commission and the
Greater Richmond Chamber of Commerce. The
RRPDC is comprised of the local governing bodies of the Region’s nine
jurisdictions, while the GRC represents the Region’s business community.
This partnership between public and private
stakeholders seeks to coordinate existing resources, programs, and
community-building efforts to produce significant results that improve our
Region. The effort is not another visioning process, but rather a sustained
ongoing collaboration between government and business. The framework of the
Collaborative is intended to unify the individual, volunteer, group, business
and local government investments in our community to produce actual positive
results.
The nine jurisdictions of the Richmond Region
include the City of Richmond, the Town of Ashland, and the Counties of Charles
City, Chesterfield, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico, Powhatan, and New Kent.
We invite you to participate in this cooperative
effort to make our shared home a greater place to live, work, and play. Those
interested in becoming involved can begin by reviewing and commenting on the
Strawman Draft of Regional Priorities, which
reflects the sentiment of 10 focus groups from the Region.
Mission Statement:
