The Southeastern Economic Development
Commission (SEDC),
established in 1968 as an arm of the Economic Development
Administration (EDA), and designated as Economic Development District (EDD). SEDC strives to create new jobs,
retain existing jobs, and stimulate economic and
industrial growth in southeastern North Carolina.
By providing economic education and assistance,
assembling EDA project applications, and assisting
in overall district project work, SEDC continuously
endeavors to enhance the quality of life for all
residents of its member counties.
The EDA provides yearly funding and, as such, defines SEDC's scope of work. As required by EDA, SEDC completes a Comprehesive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) for the District. The CEDS reports maintains the District's eligibility for EDA funding, a major source of infrastructure grants. Since 1968, SEDC has secured over $77 million dollars in EDA financial assistance within the twelve county district.
