Attend a virtual workshop to meet directly with federal agencies and state practitioners to learn about available resources and discuss potential pathways for regional economic revitalization. This session is tailored specifically to Colorado with a focus on the $300 million in federal funding recently announced as part of the U.S. Economic Development Administration’s (EDA) Coal Communities Commitment.
