Today, the Southern Economic Advancement Project (SEAP) released its report, Engagement & Equity First: Opportunities and Challenges for Federal Funding Implementation, which aims to identify innovations and challenges among local governments and nonprofit organizations as they implement federal recovery funds. Identifying and resolving these can bring more community voices to the table for spending decisions and produce more equitable outcomes that will change the landscape of many Southern communities.

As aid from the American Rescue Plan (ARP) continues to flow into southern states, the Southern Economic Advancement Project (SEAP) plans to award $50,000 in grants to six non-profits to encourage the fair distribution of ARP recovery funds.

SEAP partners with dozens of small non-profits to state and federal government agencies on economic security, healthcare, and climate. Our partners frequently request existing and new datasets. Our team often finds that current DOC data is the first barrier when providing federal data sources.
