Indigenous Communities Information Session with EDA

About the Event:

On Thursday, October 14th from 2pm-3pm EDT, the Economic Development Administration (EDA), in partnership with the Native American Finance Officers Association (NAFOA), will host a virtual webinar to explain a new rule extending Tribal eligibility to include for-profit Tribal corporations that are wholly owned by, and established for the benefit of, a Tribe, and will provide an overview of the $100 million in grant funding available under EDA’s Indigenous Communities program. EDA is also pleased to use this opportunity to introduce Carolee Wenderoth, who will be serving as the new Tribal Engagement Coordinator at EDA.

Tribal Leaders and their designated representatives, as well as members of Native American Communities and stakeholder organizations, are cordially invited to attend and may register using this link: https://nafoa.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_7iz-he66QNyuVmAD9E52Mw.
