Economic Adjustment Assistance is run by Department of Commerce. From fiscal 2021 to 2025 it awarded $4.7 billion in 1,882 grants, about $2.5 million per award.

## Objectives

The EAA program provides a wide range of technical, planning, public works and infrastructure, and other financial assistance in regions experiencing adverse economic changes that may occur suddenly or over time. These adverse economic impacts may result from a steep decline in manufacturing employment following a plant closure, changing trade patterns, catastrophic natural disasters, a military base closure, or environmental changes and regulations.
