*CED
Community Economic Development is a community focused process for local
revitalization. Centered on economic issues, the process integrates
and recognizes the political issues which support and are critical to
the economic health of the entire community. CED builds the capacity
of the community's members to create and economic future which suits
their values, priorities and needs, and creates or maintains employment.
