Support and encourage increased employment opportunities by partnering with economic development-focused agencies and businesses in marketing, recruitment, and training efforts, resulting in new or increased job opportunities within the EZ.

In partnership with community stakeholders, support the revitalization of existing business districts through rehabilitation and business expansion.

Support Workforce Housing Capital Campaigns, promoting a variety of housing and job opportunities in the region, resulting in an increase of successful housing outcomes and job placements.

Support a thriving healthcare ecosystem within the EZ by incentivizing investment in medical facilities, expanding access to high-quality care to EZ residents, encouraging healthcare innovation, and creating jobs to improve community health outcomes.
