Membership Benefits

The Elkhorn Valley Economic Development Council is a collaborative public-private partnership formed to promote new economic development opportunities and to support existing small businesses in the Madison, Pierce and Stanton three-county region. Our three-county area is interdependent economically and is the nucleus of a regional micro-economy. Each of the member counties and communities have recognized that a continuous economic development effort is an important and integral part of our region’s ability to grow and prosper. By pooling resources, offering varied services, sharing talent and using the “Resource Team” approach we can reduce costs and have effective economic development programs for our region.
