Pathfinders Strategic Partners has left its old name behind in 2020 as it seeks to continue providing a variety of services and start new ones with its rebranding in 2021.
The intergovernmental agency, formerly known as the Mid-Iowa Development Association Council of Governments (MIDAS), is a voluntary association of local governments headquartered in Fort Dodge. The 28E agreement organization is known by many for its economic development efforts and for the bus transportation service it provides in Fort Dodge and the six counties in its region – Calhoun, Hamilton, Humboldt, Pocahontas, Webster and Wright. It also provides services in comprehensive planning, grant funding and administration.
