Smart Growth America Technical Assistance: Small-Scale Manufacturing
Free technical assistance to leverage small-scale manufacturing to help revitalize your community and create new opportunity.
In partnership with the U.S. Economic Development Administration and Recast City, Smart Growth America is offering free technical assistance to community leaders interested in using small-scale manufacturing to help revitalize a downtown or neighborhood and create economic opportunity.
The six (6) communities selected for this opportunity will be engaged over a four-month technical assistance period. This includes a two- to three-day site visit and a customized action plan that identifies next steps and resources available for implementation. This is the second year of this technical assistance—read about the winning communities from early 2017.
