Community Economic Resilience Fund

What is the Community Economic Resilience Fund?

The Community Economic Resilience Fund (CERF) was created to promote a sustainable and equitable recovery from the economic distress of COVID-19 by supporting new plans and strategies to diversify local economies and develop sustainable industries that create high-quality, broadly accessible jobs for all Californians.

To achieve this goal, the State will allocate $600 million across thirteen designated regions to fund the development
of region-specific economic development strategies that support the creation of quality jobs and equal access to
those jobs. For more information about the CERF program, please read the LA HRTC ONE-PAGER

We are excited to announce that the Los Angeles coalition of over 200 organizations and stakeholders was awarded Phase 1 Funds for CERF process.
