COAD Turns 50!

The Corporation for Ohio Appalachian Development (COAD) was formed in 1971 by seventeen rural community action agencies, building a coalition with the goal of ameliorating the burden of poverty for the residents of Appalachian Ohio. In 2021, we continue that mission despite unprecedented challenges.

Please join us for our 50th Annual Conference to celebrate our history and collective accomplishments of decades past while seeking new opportunities and innovations so that we can continue improving lives within our communities. We hope that the sessions and speakers will provide both knowledge and inspiration.
