About this opportunity
The Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration (EDA) is offering funding through the FY 2016-FY 2019 Planning Program and Local Technical Assistance Program. Through this opportunity, EDA aims to assist eligible applicants in creating regional economic development plans and building capacity to guide economic prosperity and resiliency. Specifically, the Planning Program supports the development of Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS), while the Local Technical Assistance Program strengthens the capacity of local or state organizations to promote effective economic development programs. Eligible applicant types include higher education institutions, nonprofits, tribal governments, and various levels of state and local government. Applications will be evaluated on their ability to address key priorities such as job creation, economic resilience, and support for underserved communities.
Awards under this opportunity typically range from $70,000 to $500,000, with durations of approximately one to three years. Projects may involve activities such as feasibility studies, economic analysis, strategic planning, and technical assistance delivery. Although the posted date is March 20, 2018, the application deadline is not until January 29, 2025, allowing for an extended period to submit proposals.
Synopsis

Update #2 · Latest ·
Pursuant to PWEDA, EDA announces general policies and application procedures for grant-based investments under the Planning and Local Technical Assistance programs. Under the Planning program EDA assists eligible recipients in creating regional economic development plans designed to build capacity and guide the economic prosperity and resiliency of an area or region. As part of this program, EDA supports Partnership Planning investments to facilitate the development, implementation, revision, or replacement of Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS), which articulate and prioritize the strategic economic goals of recipients' respective regions. In general, EDA provides Partnership Planning grants to the designated planning organization (e.g., District Organization) serving EDA designated Economic Development Districts to enable these organizations to develop and implement relevant CEDS. In addition, EDA provides Partnership Planning grants to Indian Tribes to help develop and implement CEDS and associated economic development activities. The Planning program also helps support organizations, including District Organizations, Indian Tribes, and other eligible recipients, with Short Term and State Planning investments designed to guide the eventual creation and retention of high-quality jobs, particularly for the unemployed and underemployed in the Nation's most economically distressed regions. The Local Technical Assistance program strengthens the capacity of local or State organizations, institutions of higher education, and other eligible recipients to undertake and promote effective economic development programs through projects such as feasibility analyses and impact studies.
