We often see "community development" and "economic development" used as separate terms. So what do we mean by "community economic development"?

The CED field is diverse, has many definitions and interpretations, and has a robust history- which includes exclusionary and discriminatory practices. This first session will set the stage for the updated CED 101 series. Those new to the field will be given information and tools to understand their organization’s place in the CED ecosystem. In addition, attendees will learn what it means to be responsible CED leaders- leaders who understand past mistakes and build upon the great work that is being done by people in our communities.
