About this opportunity
This federal grant opportunity, announced by the Department of Commerce's Economic Development Administration (EDA), provides funding for the EDA Philadelphia FY 2016-FY 2019 Planning Program and Local Technical Assistance Program. The Planning program supports the development and implementation of Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS) to guide regional economic prosperity and resilience, while the Local Technical Assistance program strengthens the capacity of local and state organizations to promote effective economic development initiatives. Eligible applicants include county governments, non-profits, state governments, higher education institutions, city/township governments, special districts, and tribal governments. There are no application deadlines, with submissions accepted on an ongoing basis.
The Planning program grants typically range from $40,000 to $200,000, with an average of $70,000, while Local Technical Assistance grants range from $50,000 to $300,000, with an average of $64,000. The funding requires matching shares based on regional economic distress levels, typically ranging from 20-50% of project costs. Projects may involve feasibility analyses, impact studies, and other technical assistance to support economic development in communities across the EDA's Philadelphia region.

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.
