IN IT TOGETHER
Community Ownership & Resource Education
C.O.R.E. is a community-led effort from Rural Whole Health Coalition and the City of Smithville, made possible by a grant from the Greater Fayette Community Foundation. The program offers free workshops and guidance to help Central Texas families on topics like homeownership, budgeting and building generational wealth.
Rooted in Community
Community stories and lived experiences helped shape the vision for what would become the C.O.R.E. program.
The video below, recorded in 2024 before the program officially launched, captures many of the concerns and insights that inspired the grant and laid the foundation for this work. While some details have since evolved, the voices remain just as powerful and relevant today.
