Regional Focus Located in Sioux Falls with peers in neighboring states (Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Wyoming, Texas, Missouri), there are cross-border collaboration and regional expansion opportunities, including shared conferences, training programs, and vendor partnerships.
