The Small Town Main Street Program addresses the growing number of small, rural towns that need downtown development assistance but are not likely, due to size or resource limitations, to pursue the regular Main Street program. Selected communities receive on-site technical assistance from the Small Town Main Street staff including:
- Organizational development
- Market analysis
- Business assistance
- Promotions
- Design.
As in the regular Main Street program, no funds come with the designation.
