Frontier Community Resources
Receives One Million Dollars in USDA Funds to Establish a New Revolving Loan Fund
Twin Falls – Frontier Community Resources, Inc.
The purpose of the Intermediary Relending Program (IRP) is to provide critical access to capital to rural businesses through the establishment of a Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) program to relend funds to rural businesses. Through this IRP award, USDA provided a $1,000,000 loan to Frontier to re-capitalize Frontier’s RLF program. This is a subsequent loan to Frontier to provide additional capital for rural businesses in response to great demand and strong success by Frontier in achieving the goals for the IRP program.

Community Highlight
A Distinct Identity
Lincoln County Youth Center knows that our strength lies not only in the words we stand by, but most importantly through the actions of our initiatives. In March of 2020, our county and city leaders realized that by working together we could overcome our challenges much more efficiently, and that is why we ultimately decided to launch Lincoln County Youth Center.
