Empowerment Zones

Empowerment zones are designated areas in the United States that receive special federal support to boost economic development and improve living conditions. Established by the government, these zones aim to attract businesses and create jobs in underprivileged communities. The initiatives often include tax incentives for businesses that invest in these areas, funding for infrastructure improvements, and support for education and training programs. The goal is to empower local residents, reduce poverty, and revitalize neighborhoods by encouraging sustainable economic growth and providing opportunities for all.
