Federal Assistance for Local Economic Development
Abstract
The federal government offers a wide variety of technical assistance, information, and financial help to state and local governments and other eligible institutions for the purposes of stabilizing and developing communities. The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) provides the best listing of these programs. This presentation of commonly used development programs has been prepared for community leaders to illustrate the range of federal government services. Only a few of each program's characteristics are presented, but each program title is preceded by the CDFA program code number so that the complete explanation can be readily located in the CFDA. The cited program information comes from the FY 1990 edition of the CFDA. It is divided here into two categories: planning and technical assistance and implementation. Programs offering both categories of aid are listed under the first, and both are noted in the Description section. Other programs devoted to communities' general capacity to thrive are also listed in this first category. Programs that aid only construction programs and related physical developments in communities are listed in the second category. Keywords: Economic analysis; Planning.
