Collection Overview
- Biography / History
- Human/Economic Appalachian Development (HEAD) was founded in 1974 by the Commission on Religion in Appalachia (CORA) Self-Help Task force to provide support for local communities by promoting local businesses, creating job opportunities, and working with related corporations to improve general well-being in the Appalachian Region. Specifically, HEAD was set up to increase community economic development in isolated rural mountainous regions and to create job training centers for the Appalachian Region. HEAD sought to create culturally sensitive jobs that provided opportunities for advancement, creating safe and sanitary living environments and building up the local communities as a whole. In 1976, HEAD began to build new organizations to carry out their goal. Marketing Appalachia's Traditional Community Handcrafts (MATCH), the Federation of Appalachian Housing Enterprises (FAHE) and Land for Appalachia's New Development (LAND) were all started by HEAD projects. In the early 1980s, HEAD began to work as a loan fund and has continued to provide funds for regional businesses in partnership with a credit union to the present day. The initial director, Ben Poage, remains a member of the board for HEAD as of 2017.

HEAD organized projects to improve and develop housing, assist small farms, aid food cooperatives, begin a credit union, and more. The records also include meeting information and correspondence among HEAD members and agencies working with HEAD. In addition to the work that HEAD performed on its own, this collection contains files outlining activities of organizations with similar goals and intentions like Grass Roots Economic Development Corporation (GREDC) and Mountain Education and Management Institute (MEMI).
