destination development association

The Destination Development Association is a membership for people with a passion for creating great communities. It is a sole-source resource for everyone charged with downtown development, revitalization, tourism development and marketing, and economic development. It includes the resources for finding the ideas, expertise, and partners needed to become an outstanding destination for residents, visitors and investment. Destination Development is the intersection of Community Development (quality of life for your residents), tourism product and marketing (the visitor experience), and investment (economic development and jobs). Destination Development is all about getting these three disciplines working in unison to achieve sustainable success. And this makes up the heart of what the Destination Development Association is all about. Using videos, motivational case histories, photography, inspirational how-to guides, networking, and fresh, new research and information, this association is like having another assistant at your side. Help your career and your community with solutions, resources, up-to-date information, inspiration and practical guidance. With networking opportunities to give fresh perspectives and answers to help prioritize your to-do list, your membership will connect you and others in your community so that you are working together with a unified vision.
