Making the NMTC Program Work in Native Communities

When:  May 24, 2018 from 08:00 AM to 04:30 PM (CT)
Do you have questions about how Native-led community and economic development organizations can increase their participation in the New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program? Wondering about opportunities and challenges of investing in Native areas, or ways to combine the NMTC Program with other federal or state programs? Interested in understanding how your organization can utilize the NMTC Program to benefit our communities?

 

Come and engage in active discussion on these topics and more with CDFI Fund staff, Native CDFIs, industry leaders, and professionals at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis on May 24, 2018, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

 

Key learning objectives:

Upon conclusion of the workshop, participants will understand:

  • The basics of how the NMTC Program works
  • The various ways to participate in the NMTC Program–as a potential allocatee/sub-allocatee, leveraged lender, investor, qualified business, etc.
  • How NMTC fits into the overall capital structure of a project
  • Pairing NMTC with other state or federal programs

Since 2000, the NMTC Program has generated investment in low-income communities across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico. and in Native Communities. The NMTC stimulates local economies in low-income communities, and is a proven, cost- effective tool that supports job creation and other community benefits.
