The Rural Development Network (RDN) is a national nonprofit organization based in Alberta, Canada, dedicated to strengthening rural, remote, and Indigenous communities. RDN works alongside local partners to co-create practical, evidence-based solutions that address housing and homelessness, newcomer settlement, and community and economic development challenges.

RDN publishes a newsletter, The Rural Connector Newsletter, once a month.
