Rural Economic Development (RED) Program Relaunched
Date: October 2, 2015
The Ontario government announced it has renewed the RED program and is receiving applications again. Through the cost-share program rural communities, businesses and organizations can receive funding to help attract investment, create jobs, and boost tourism. Applications will be reviewed and approved through several intake periods:
- October 2, 2015 to January 15, 2016
- January 16, 2016 to April 15, 2016
- April 16, 2016 to July 15, 2016
- July 16, 2016 to October 15, 2016
- October 16, 2016 to January 15, 2017
The renewed program has two streams for applications: a Community Development Stream and a Business Development Stream. Most of the changes to the revamped program were made under the Business Development stream. Specific details can be found on the OMAFRA website here.
