Thriving Communities Technical Assistance

The Thriving Communities Technical Assistance (TCTA) program helps local governments and Tribes better integrate housing, transportation, and infrastructure investments to revitalize communities and expand opportunity. By offering tailored support, TCTA ensures that historic federal funding for broadband, transit, water systems, and energy grids is implemented in ways that improve affordability, accessibility, and quality of life in under-resourced regions. This approach aligns with the Aspen Community Strategies Group’s mission to elevate practitioner voices, foster peer learning, and influence systemic funding reform. Together, these efforts strengthen rural and Indigenous communities by ensuring that major investments translate into lasting equity, resilience, and prosperity.
