This grant, offered by the Economic Development Administration (EDA), supports two key initiatives: the Planning Program and the Local Technical Assistance Program. The Planning Program assists eligible recipients, including designated planning organizations and Indian Tribes, in developing and implementing Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS). These strategies are designed to guide and stimulate regional economic growth, ultimately creating and retaining higher-skill jobs, especially in economically distressed areas. Concurrently, the Local Technical Assistance Program aims to bolster the capabilities of local, state, and higher education organizations. It supports projects such as feasibility analyses and impact studies, thereby strengthening their capacity to undertake and promote effective economic development initiatives within their communities.
