RFD7 and White Paper

In 2005 Region VII Planning and Development Council undertook an ambitious project, called
RFD7, to bring
together a diverse cross section of community stakeholders in Barbour, Braxton, Gilmer, Lewis, Randolph,
Tucker, and Upshur Counties to begin dialogue on the Regions future. Four meetings were conducted and
participation was excellent not only from the local level, but state and national as well. The Capstone of the
process was a published "
White Paper" which documents the process, participation and the outcome of the
project.

The Rural Future Destination Project (RFD-7)
"Youth Summit I, II,III"
(Addendum to the "White Paper")


One of the outcomes from RFD7 was the apparent need for more Youth Involvement within Regional Councils. 
As a result of that need, Region VII sponsored several Youth Summits.  The report that followed these events is
published as an
Addendum to the "White Paper."
