South Thurston Economic Development Initiative (STEDI)
About STEDI
STEDI connects South Thurston communities with resources of our strategic community partners to identify and implement efforts that will meet South Thurston’s economic and community development goals.
STEDI meets on the third Friday of every month 8:00 – 9:30 a.m. and rotates locations amongst the South County Communities.
STEDI staff work in all the South Thurston Communities and can schedule an appointment near your location.
