Environmental Finance Centers

The Environmental Finance Centers (EFCs) deliver targeted technical assistance to, and partner with states, tribes, local governments, and the private sector in providing innovative solutions to help manage the costs of environmental financing and program management. Each of the 10 EPA regions has a dedicated EFC with a focus area for that region. For example, the Environmental Finance Center at the University of Maryland for EPA Region 3 serves Delaware, District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia, and focuses on offering technical assistance through direct community engagement; policy analysis and decision support tools; communications and outreach; and experiential learning and leadership development to strengthen the capacity of local decision-makers to manage change for a healthy environment and an enhanced quality of life.
