Nothing better illustrates the spirit of Kansas than the state’s individual communities.
Whether it’s the picturesque farming towns in the west or the budding Johnson County suburbs in the east,
Kansas communities continue to provide residents with an unmatched quality of life while instilling the
values and work ethic that make Kansans so special.
The Department is committed to the viability of Kansas communities through a variety of programs and services,
including block grants, community service tax credits, and strategic planning. Utilizing our technical, planning,
and financial assistance, Commerce works with each community as a catalyst and financial partner in setting and
achieving locally prioritized goals. If you’re a community leader or volunteer who wants to improve the quality of
life in your hometown, then Commerce likely has what you need.
