Support for Economic Development Organizations
Support for Economic Development Organizations is designed to strengthen the key partners in Northeast Power's service area. Successful economic development is achieved through partnerships.

Northeast Power encourages all of its Member-Distribution Cooperatives to be active participants in their service areas' local economic development organizations. If a Member-Distribution Cooperative joins or invests in a local economic development organization, Northeast Power may join or invest in it as well. Northeast Power's Manager of Member Services and Economic Development can be a resource to help local development efforts. Northeast Power also supports programs that improve the economy and quality-of-life of its service area. Examples include:
- Tri-State Development Summit;
- Missouri Community Betterment Program;
- Palmyra Chamber of Commerce.
