COMMUNITY ECONOMIC
RESILIENCE FUND

The “ESCOG: Community Economic Resiliency Fund Pilot Program” provides for ESCOG to coordinate and engage with regional economic development opportunities in collaboration with Member Agencies through the State of California’s “Community Economic Resiliency Fund” Planning Phases (CERF) and the development of the region’s “Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy” (CEDS); receive funding to participate in regional economic development planning efforts that have already been funded by agencies outside of the region, including the state of California’s CERF and the completion of a CEDS funded by the federal Economic Development Administration; and support and build upon the economic development efforts of Member Agencies that promote economic development efforts to enhance the region’s economic resilience and prosperity.
