Abstract
Local, national, and global forces have unleashed a "torrent" of economic and social change in rural America. An educational package titled "Towns in Transition: Managing Change in Natural Resource-dependent Communities" provides tools that residents and leaders of those communities, including Extension agents, can use to cope. An award-winning video and companion study guide pinpoint transitional stages communities go through adapting to change. They offer strategies residents can employ during those stages. The video and study guide look at the real-life experiences of residents of three towns.
