One Membership. Multiple Paths. Your Journey, Your Way.
When you become a WDC member, you’re getting more than access to just one program—you’re stepping into a community built to support your growth from every angle. With a single membership, you can explore a wide range of opportunities across entrepreneurship, workforce development, creative industries, wellness, and more. Whether you’re here to start a business, learn new skills, connect with others, or just figure out your next step, your path is yours to shape—and we’re here to help you make the most of it.
There are three main ways to experience WDC. You can keep things open with a general experience, where you get access to a broad mix of resources and events without committing to a specific focus. Or, if you’re looking for something more tailored, you can choose a community-centered path based on your location, or a culturally focused path that reflects your values, identity, or shared experiences. Some people even combine both to create a journey that feels right for them. However you decide to move forward, WDC gives you the flexibility to grow in a way that’s personal, meaningful, and fully your own.

Eastern Plains of Colorado
The Eastern Plains of Colorado are the backbone of the state’s agricultural and rural economy, home to farmers, ranchers, small businesses, and local entrepreneurs who drive the region’s sustainability. WDC is dedicated to ensuring that rural communities have the same access to economic resources, workforce development, and business support as those in urban centers. Through specialized programs, we help individuals navigate the unique challenges of rural business ownership and career development.

That’s why WDC provides customized solutions that connect Eastern Plains residents with funding opportunities, skill-building workshops, and mentorship from industry professionals. Whether you’re an independent farmer, a rural entrepreneur, or a professional seeking new career pathways, our initiatives are designed to help you succeed without leaving your community.
Representation matters, and at WDC, we believe that rural Coloradans deserve programs tailored to their regional needs. Our mission is to bridge the gap between resources and innovation, ensuring that individuals in the Eastern Plains can thrive, grow, and contribute to a stronger local economy.
