SUMMARY:EDA Informational Webinar about the Recompete Pilot Program
DESCRIPTION:The Recompete Pilot Program will make focused investments to spur long-term success in communities grappling with years of economic distress. As part of  the Economic Development Administration (EDA)’s place-based economic development approach\, the program intends to meet communities where they are by offering flexible grant opportunities to ensure sustainable and equitable economic growth in all pockets of a community. \nOn July 12\, 2023\, EDA will host an informational webinar for Indigenous Communities at 2:00 p.m. ET about the Recompete Pilot Program. Please register here.  \nThe Phase 1 NOFO was informed by input received earlier this year in their Request for Information (RFI) and during our Tribal consultation. A high-level summary of those responses can be found here: RFI summary / Tribal consultation summary. This program builds on our belief that local community leaders—public\, private\, civic\, and labor—are best positioned to craft their own economic future. To view the Phase 1 NOFO\, FAQs and other updates\, visit our Recompete Pilot Program landing page.

These hearings will provide a forum for law enforcement\, subject-matter experts\, organizations\, State/Tribal task forces\, advocates\, survivors/families\, and other stakeholders to offer testimony directly to the Commission in order to improve cross-jurisdictional communications\, increase access to resources\, and address other issues related to the MMIP and HT crises.\nPlease join the next Commission hearings—details are above.

Each hearing will include open-press segments\, as well as closed-press segments that provide privacy to participants without media being present. Trauma-informed support will be available onsite with optional follow-up support\, as needed. The Commission’s facilitation team will be present to document all oral testimony. Please note that any information provided during the hearings—including oral testimony and written comments—is considered public record\, so please protect nonpublic or sensitive information accordingly.
