Breaking Down ARPA: Understanding the Funding Available to Your County
On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) (H.R. 1319) into law. The $1.9 trillion package included the $65.1 billion Local Fiscal Recovery Fund, which provided direct funding to counties of all sizes and is intended to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, including the public health and economic impacts. Beyond the Recovery Fund, the ARPA provided other critical funding that can be used to support residents and communities across the country impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. To better navigate county-eligible funding allocated in this historical piece of legislation, NACo created an interactive tool that lists all new and existing programs. This session will provide members with an overview of the new interactive tool that aims to help counties assess potential funding streams established by ARPA so they can better utilize their direct allocation.
