You can now apply for the LEDA Recovery Grants 2021/2022 for interested persons. All applicants will need to create a new account with a username and password.
The LEDA Recovery Grants were created by the State of New Mexico in the 2021 Legislative Session by House Bill 11 to provide $200 million in grant funding to New Mexico small businesses that are experiencing financial hardship due to the pandemic.
These grants are specifically tied to job creation, must be used as reimbursements of rent, lease or mortgage payments, and are prioritized based on the severity of economic decline experienced by the business.
This program is administered by NMFA on behalf of the New Mexico Economic Development Department.
