About this opportunity
This Federal Grant Opportunity (ID: 301962-F) is from the Economic Development Administration (EDA) within the Department of Commerce. It provides funding through the Planning Program and Local Technical Assistance Program to support the development of regional economic development plans, including Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS). Eligible applicants include county and local governments, higher education institutions, nonprofits, tribes, and special districts. The grants can be used to create, implement, revise, or replace CEDS, as well as conduct feasibility analyses and impact studies to promote economic development. There are no application deadlines, with submissions accepted on an ongoing basis until the opportunity is superseded.
Typical Partnership Planning grants range from $40,000 to $200,000, while Local Technical Assistance grants range from $50,000 to $300,000. The maximum EDA investment rate varies from 50% to 80% of total project costs based on the region's economic distress level, with potential for up to 100% funding in special cases. The projects are managed through six regional EDA offices covering different states, with funding opportunities designated by specific numbers (e.g., EDA-ATL-TA-ATRO-2018-2005539 for the Atlanta office).

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.
