The overall mission of USDA Rural Development is to improve the quality of life for rural Americans. To accomplish this we have the responsibility of coordinating Federal assistance in rural areas of our great state.
Working closely with profit and non-profit sectors, along with state, tribal, and local governments, we are fundamentally changing the way in which the Federal government does business. With this new philosophy of public partnership many positive outcomes for rural Americans are occurring daily.
It is Rural Development's intention to ensure rural citizens can participate fully in the global economy. By providing technical assistance and programs to rural Americans a stronger economy will be built and will improve the quality of life for all.
The "North Dakota" State Office, located in Bismarck, North Dakota, administers USDA Rural Development programs from seven field office sites across the state. Each site is committed to serving those in search of information and assistance with Rural Development programs and initiatives. The following links will provide you with office locations, points of contact, and office hours to assist in your endeavors.
