Small businesses are the heartbeat of our rural communities, and stories like Julie Foster’s remind us why local support matters.

Through CCD Business Technical Assistance, Julie of Jules of the West was able to receive support for website development, Google Business optimization, and SEO services to help grow her business visibility in Brookings and throughout Curry County.

“I’m so grateful to CCD for the leg-up of the $1K grant that allowed for my website’s development. 2026 will be a phenomenal year with all the generous opportunities available for small businesses like Jules of the West to partake of.”

Thank You to Our South Coast Housing Summit Sponsors!

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a month since the 2026 South Coast Housing Summit. As we continue reflecting, following up, and carrying this work forward, we want to take a moment to recognize the sponsors who helped make it all possible.

To our incredible Summit sponsors, thank you for investing in this work and standing alongside us in a shared commitment to real housing solutions for the South Coast.

Your support went far beyond sponsorship. It represented belief in what’s possible when communities, organizations, leaders, and partners come together with purpose.

Because of you, we were able to host our largest Housing Summit to date, bringing together changemakers from across the region to collaborate, learn, and continue building momentum toward meaningful housing progress.

What makes the South Coast special is not just the challenges we face, but the way we continue to face them together.

We are deeply grateful to be in this work and momentum with you.

A huge thank you to our Community Visionary sponsors:
Primal Property Management
Carleton Hart Architecture
