The Economic Development Administration (EDA) was established in 1961 as the Area Redevelopment Administration (ARA). In 1965, the ARA's functions were transferred to the newly created EDA. Its mission is "leading the federal economic development agenda by promoting competitiveness and preparing American regions for growth and success in the worldwide economy." It provides economic assistance to distressed communities in the U.S.
