Hello everyone,

I'm wondering whether someone can advise me on a job search. I am trying to 
transition from working on international rural development projects to 
working in the field of rural or community development in the U.S.  I've also 
done a bit in the area of training/informal adult education. I know about a 
few organizations in this field, i.e. the Cooperative Extension services, and 
a few NGOs throughout the country (Aspen Institute, Heartland Institute, 
Center for Rural Affairs), but does anyone have good suggestions as to where 
to look. I have a B.S. and M.A.  in Geography and have done project 
management, research, and technical assistance in the international setting.  
Any advice would help. 

Kind regards,

Katie Rasmussen
