Regional Economic Development Councils

Regional Economic Development Councils (REDCs) are collaborative groups formed to enhance economic growth within specific areas, typically at the state or regional level. They comprise local business leaders, government officials, and community members who identify economic opportunities, address challenges, and develop strategies to attract investment and create jobs. REDCs work to align resources, promote regional strengths, and foster innovation, aiming to improve the overall quality of life in their communities. By prioritizing projects and funding requests, they help ensure that economic development efforts are targeted and effectively implemented.
