BUSINESS SERVICES AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Our services enrich the region as a "product" that attracts business and industry as investors and as a "place" of community to cherish and grow for residents and visitors alike. 

Kisatchie-Delta serves eight parishes:
Avoyelles, Catahoula, Concordia, Grant, LaSalle, Rapides, Vernon, and Winn

Kisatchie-Delta programs result in increased economic activity and community capacity, improved physical and social community infrastructure, and capital injection through increased revenue or lending of our region's businesses.
