SBA to Provide Resources to Small Businesses Affected by COVID-19

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is now providing resources and guidance for businesses to plan and respond to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. One of the ways that the SBA is helping small businesses during this time is by providing disaster assistance loans. These loans can provide economic support for small businesses to help overcome the temporary loss of revenue they are experiencing.

Diane Williams, Owner of Dreams and Memories Professional Planning Services located at the STL Partnership Wellston Business Center is taking extra steps to protect her business amidst the COVID-19 epidemic and is pleased that the SBA is willing to assist small businesses during this time.

“I am making sure the safety of my clients comes first. My business has not been affected so far, but it is good to know the SBA is willing to help when needed.” said Williams.

There are different resources specific to each state. For more information on how the SBA can help, click here.
