Appalachian Regional Commission: Appalachian Regional Initiative for Stronger Economies (ARISE)
Posted: June 26, 2023
ARISE is ARC’s newest initiative that aims to drive large-scale, regional economic transformation through multi-state collaborative projects across Appalachia. Applicants must highlight partnerships across multiple states and provide a plan that showcases the economic impact of proposed project. ARC has hosted several workshops on this initiative and they can be found here.
ARISE rests on the observation that significant economic opportunities often reach across state lines and that achieving the maximum economic impact from these can demand a multistate approach. For example, industry clusters may exist in adjacent states, or they may reach broadly across states that are not contiguous. ARISE recognizes that helping Appalachia achieve socioeconomic parity with the nation requires strategies that can yield truly regional impacts. A multistate approach can enable ARC states acting collectively to realize economic advantages that are greater than the states acting individually.
Through carefully crafted planning grants and transformational implementation grants, ARISE will foster creative collaboration across state lines to produce a more robust and sustainable regional economy. ARISE aims to create economic mobility; address historic inequities for marginalized, underserved, and underrepresented communities; and produce high-quality employment for workers who reside in the Region, enabling them to remain and thrive in these communities.
