These federal resources include grant and financial management support, pre-development assistance, community engagement, planning, and project delivery support. Join federal agency staff, technical assistance providers, philanthropy, and state and local community leaders at this event in Manchester, NH for information about federal funding and technical assistance programs available to communities facing environmental and economic challenges, as well as time for local communities to discuss their priority projects with TA providers and their peers, to develop partnerships, learn from each other, and identify potential support.
