CEDS – Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy

Overview

A Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy – or CEDS – is a tool to organize and coordinate a region’s economic development goals for the next five years. Built with the direct input from leaders and community members, the CEDS is a living document that increases a region’s access to funding resources, including those through the U.S. Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The Pioneer Valley Planning Commission (PVPC) is the federally designated Economic Development District for Hampden and Hampshire Counties – the Pioneer Valley in Western Massachusetts – and is responsible for developing the Pioneer Valley CEDS.
