The Virginia Tobacco Region Revitalization Commission, established by the 1999 General Assembly, is dedicated to promoting economic growth and development in formerly tobacco-dependent communities in Southern and Southwest Virginia. Utilizing proceeds from the national tobacco settlement, the Commission has facilitated the creation of tens of thousands of jobs and attracted hundreds of millions of dollars in investment to the region.
With a focus on fostering a diverse economy, the Commission supports initiatives ranging from agriculture and workforce development to energy projects. Through funding programs and partnerships, the Commission continues to drive innovation and opportunity in rural Virginia, contributing to the long-term sustainability and prosperity of the region.
