Advanced Housing, Education, & Agriculture Development Consortium

The AHEAD Consortium is dedicated to revitalizing rural communities by fostering economic opportunity, innovation, and self-sufficiency. Through the development of advanced construction manufacturing, workforce development, and advanced agriculture programs and facilities, we are building strong, self-reliant communities that support hardworking Americans and the values that make our nation great.

​

With ecosystems across all Central Appalachian states, AHEAD partners with businesses, local governments, and community organizations to create scalable models of economic growth that enhance prosperity in rural America. By embracing cutting-edge technology and traditional American ingenuity, we are ensuring that rural communities thrive for generations to come.
