Small business owners impacted by the spread of COVID-19 may now apply for financing through two programs: the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and Emergency Injury Disaster Relief Loans (EIDL). We know many small businesses need help navigating these loan programs and the application process during this difficult time.

  • How to avoid predatory lenders
  • Venturize and other helpful tools and resources
  • Discussion of what state policies Georgia can enact to foster economic recovery for small businesses
