The Rural Ontario Development (ROD) Program replaces the Rural Economic Development (RED) Program. We modernized and expanded the program to offer $20 million in funding over 2 years. This program supports the objectives of Enabling Opportunity: Ontario’s Rural Economic Development Strategy.

The ROD Program provides cost-share funding for projects that help rural communities:

  • address barriers and build capacity for economic development
  • to attract, retain and expand businesses
  • attract and retain investment and jobs
  • strengthen regional partnerships and economic resilience
  • address workforce development challenges
  • transform community assets to drive economic development
