The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) Program contributes to economic development in Franklin County through a locally-based, regionally-driven economic development planning process.  Economic development planning as implemented through the CEDS serves as a means to engage community leaders, leverage the involvement of the private sector, and establish a strategic blueprint for regional collaboration.

Funding for the CEDS program comes primarily via grants through the U.S. Economic Development Administration.
