Synopsis
Only applicants that EDA approved a Recompete Plan in Phase 1 will be permitted to apply to Phase 2.
Subject to the availability of funds, awards made under this NOFO will seek to alleviate persistent economic distress and support long-term comprehensive economic development and job creation, in places with a high prime-age (25 to 54 years) employment gap. Through this NOFO, EDA expects to award implementation funds to 4-8 Finalists, which will include selecting approximately 3-8 projects within each. Implementation grants can support a wide range of non-construction and construction activities that aim to increase regional capacity across the following four broad categories: workforce development; business and entrepreneur development; infrastructure; and additional planning, predevelopment, or technical assistance.
