Economic and Community Development

Economic Development Authority Grants

The EDA’s mission is “to help our partners across the nation (states, regions & communities) create wealth and minimize poverty by promoting a favorable business environment to attract private capital investment and jobs through world-class capacity-building, planning infrastructure, research grants and strategic initiative” (EDA Brochure). EDA considers all project funding as an “investment”, and all EDA investments are geared toward job creation.
