In 2002, the Northwest North Carolina region received an EDA grant to pursue a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS).
The purpose of the grant and strategy was to:
"attract new investment, businesses, and jobs to counties that have lost employment to foreign markets as well as other market
influences."
The 43-member CEDS Committee hired AngelouEconomics
to assist in developing the strategy. The project encompassed a large region in Northwest North Carolina,
inlcuding the following 8 counties:
Alleghany
Ashe
Davie
Forsyth
Rockingham
Stokes
Surry
