The Milken Institute was awarded $500 thousand under the Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration's Economic Development Technical Assistance program to provide pre-development assistance to underserved small, rural, and distressed communities through June 2023. Milken Institute will engage communities in six regions through training, workshops, and developing an online project accelerator blueprint. Resources and materials will be made available ongoing. Milken Institute will sub-award to the Rural Community Assistance Partnership to support program delivery, community engagement, and advise communities on infrastructure project development capacity building. The funding will allow the awardees to directly assist communities in accessing technical assistance for economic development goals, as intended under the EDA NTA program.
