Overview

The Economic Recovery Board for Camden (ERB) provides a comprehensive redevelopment strategy to help Camden achieve economic growth and self-sufficiency. Due to the collaborative efforts of State and local organizations, there has never been a better time to invest in the City.

To date, over $60 million in project financing through the ERB’s $175 million allocation has been approved for 21 projects in Camden. These efforts have leveraged over $1 billion in private investment in Camden, supporting the creation of more than 1,700 expected new jobs. More than 1,750 new homes are currently under development, and in all, planning is under way for more than 7,000 new homes. Improvements in regional health care and significant new investment in higher education, including the expansions of Our Lady of Lourdes Medical Center , Cooper Hospital and Camden County College, improve the quality of life for families and ensure a legacy of opportunity for generations to come.

As the ERB moves forward with initiatives throughout the City, other agencies are supporting Camden through a variety of programs. Whether it’s the new River Line light rail or improved streets and water supply, help is coming in from around the State. The best part? More than $110 million is still available, allowing us to continue this important work. Share the vision and the opportunities of investing in Camden!
