About Economic Development Grants for Public Authority

Economic development grants for public authorities range from $600,000 to $1.0 million in typical award size, with 6,385 active opportunities currently available. The Employment and Training Administration leads funding in this category, reflecting strong federal investment in workforce and community strengthening initiatives designed for government entities.

Most grants in this combination follow a competitive application process, requiring strategic planning and detailed proposals. Nearly three in ten awards mandate cost-sharing arrangements, so budget planning should account for matching fund requirements. Filtering by support type—particularly "Training" or "Capacity Building"—will help identify grants most aligned with infrastructure and workforce development priorities.
