The legislature further finds and determines that the\nneeds of rural areas and of existing and potential not-for-profit\norganizations serving such areas will be best met by a program of\nsupport for such organizations and their activities similar to that in\narticle sixteen of this chapter but recognizing the distinctive\ncharacteristics of such areas. It is the purpose of this article to\nestablish such a program within the division of housing and community\nrenewal.\n  It is further declared to be the public policy of the state that all\nprograms of housing and community assistance administered by the\ndivision of housing and community renewal or other agencies should be\ncarried out with due regard for the special conditions in and needs of\nthe rural areas of the state.\n
