New Grant Opportunities Now Accepting Applications!
Public Works and Economic Adjustment Assistance Programs
The EDA seeks to provide comprehensive and accessible resources to economically distressed communities with innovative strategies towards infrastructure and job creation through two available grant programs: Public Works and Economic Adjustment Assistance.
- Public Works program ($117.5M): This program seeks to meet the construction and infrastructure needs of distressed regions through design projects that have encompassed wet labs, water and sewer system improvement, business incubators and accelerators, science and research parks, and more. Accepted applicants will refine their proposals to include a CEDS or EDA-accepted regional economic development strategy with a focus on high-quality job retention or creation to ensure that the region remains economically competitive after redevelopment.
-
- Economic Adjustment Assistance (EAA) program ($37M): The EAA program’s primary purpose is to empower public-private partnerships to redevelop communities experiencing economic dislocation by implementing bottom-up solutions and regional assets for construction and non-construction activities. Examples of such activities include design and engineering projects, Revolving Loan Funds, technical assistance, and other innovative economic recovery initiatives. A portion of this program ($30M) will also go towards Assistance to Coal Communities implementation projects that fall under one of the following categories: collaborative partnerships, economic and workforce development integration, multi-jurisdictional project impact, and high-quality jobs and worker advancement.
GRANT CEILING AMOUNT: $3,000,000 (requires match)
GRANT FLOOR AMOUNT: $100,000
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF PROPOSALS: No deadline; both grants are accepting rolling submissions until new NOFO or funds are depleted.
