Metcalf is pleased to introduce the 13 new grants from the Inclusive Local Economies program’s 2021 Opportunities Fund, allocating over $1.2 million in funding. The goal of the Opportunities Fund is to improve the economic livelihoods of low-income people through strategies that increase access to good jobs and improve low-wage work, reduce barriers for low-income entrepreneurs and alternative business models, and leverage the capacity of neighbourhoods and community assets.
