We have learned detailed information about our region’s strengths and weaknesses. We have studied service organizations, businesses, and local, commonwealth, and federal programs to really understand what’s available in the Roanoke Region. We have asked “what does the future hold for the Roanoke Valley of Virginia” and “how can we ensure a strong quality of life in our communities?” The Partnership for a Livable Roanoke Valley is an initiative of seven local governments and more than 60 organizations in the Roanoke Valley. The initiative seeks to promote economic opportunity and a greater quality of life for all Roanoke Valley residents through the development of the area’s first regional plan for livability.
