Reminder of Nebraska State and Local Business Grant Programs
October 26, 2022
In an effort to keep our clients and local business communities apprised of the ongoing COVID-19 economic recovery programs, we would like to provide a reminder on the following Nebraska state and local-level business grant opportunities.
American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) Grants
In the state of Nebraska, $2 million in ARPA funds has been allocated to the Nebraska Department of Labor (NDOL) for Workforce Development Grants. This grant program provides funding for businesses, non-profits, educational institutions, and other entities to provide eligible employment-related services to unemployed workers, underemployed workers, and other populations who suffered economic harm due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The application deadline for ARPA Workforce Development Grants is June 30, 2023. For more information, including eligibility requirements, please click here.
