About this opportunity
The key details of this Federal Grant Opportunity are as follows:
The Economic Development Administration (EDA) within the Department of Commerce is seeking applicants for the FY 2016-2019 Planning Program and Local Technical Assistance Program. The Planning Program provides grants to help create regional economic development plans and Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS), while the Local Technical Assistance Program strengthens the capacity of local or state organizations through feasibility analyses and impact studies. Eligible applicants include District Organizations, Indian Tribes, state/local governments, higher education institutions, and non-profit organizations. There are no application deadlines, with applications accepted on an ongoing basis. The funding opportunity aligns with EDA's investment priorities such as regional innovation, public-private partnerships, and support for underserved communities.
The average award for the Planning Program is $70,000, ranging from $40,000 to $200,000, while the average award for the Local Technical Assistance Program is $64,000, ranging from $50,000 to $300,000. The funding is administered through six regional EDA offices covering different states, with separate funding opportunity numbers for each region. The performance period for the grants is typically one to three years.

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.
