RARE announces new Program Director – Titus Tomlinson

We are excited to announce Titus Tomlinson has assumed the role of permanent Program Director for the Institute for Policy Research and Engagement’s Resource Assistance for Rural Environments (RARE) AmeriCorps program. Titus served as RARE’s Field Coordinator for seven years until Megan Smith’s passing last October. At that point he assumed the role of Acting Program Director.

We are delighted to have Titus assume this role—his depth of experience and passion have added stability to the RARE program during the past difficult few months. We look forward to his wisdom and commitment as we continue RARE’s legacy of supporting rural Oregon communities and organizations.

As we look forward to the next 25 years of RARE, please join us in congratulating Titus on his new role!
