AK-ARPA Business Relief Application Period to Open Friday
The Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development (DCCED) has announced the AK-ARPA Business Relief Program’s month-long application period will open at 8:00 am on Friday, September 17, 2021.

Unlike the AK CARES business grant program funded with federal CARES funds, the AK-ARPA program is not a first come first-served grant opportunity. Applications will be funded based on scale of impact after the application period closes on October 19, 2021.

DCCED has created application instructions and a preliminary screening tool so businesses can quickly identify if they are eligible for the program and gather necessary documentation before they begin the application. The Juneau Economic Development Council (JEDC) will administer the program and process applications once the application period has closed. 
The Greater Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce recognizes the incredible value that shopping locally has on the community. With that in mind we will be creating seasonally appropriate gift/shopping guides to help encourage the Greater Fairbanks area to spend their dollars where their (golden) heart is. Use these guides as inspiration and a reminder that so much of what you need can be found within our great state, and community. Let’s work on keeping our money closer, so our community can go further.
