WHO WE ARE
Responsible Growth * NE Washington is a WA based, nonprofit organization formed by local community citizens, who want to see their region thrive culturally, environmentally and economically. In addition to supporting regional and local, small home-grown businesses and low-impact growth and development, our mission is to —
- Support the Arts and Humanities in such a way that it cultivates, promotes and sustains them, thereby, initiating appreciation, plus community and economic growth.
- Encourage and promote smart economic growth and living wage jobs that preserve our rural lifestyles while protecting our health, environment and natural resources.
- Encourage folks to volunteer and become active in community events.
- Collaborate and work with CELDF (Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund) and local, regional, and state lawmakers to change the laws that favor corporations over the rights of the people.
