About Us
SEAGO Economic Development District
Since 1991, SouthEastern Arizona Governments Organization (SEAGO) has been designated an Economic Development District (EDD) by the U.S. Economic Development Administration. EDDs help lead the locally-based, regionally driven economic development planning process that leverages the involvement of the public, private and non-profit sectors to establish a strategic blueprint for regional collaboration. The EDD serves SEAGO’s entire region, which includes four counties, fourteen incorporated governments and one Native American Community.
