Learn how to find financial relief through the Paycheck Protection Program.

Assistance for your business is here.

As part of the Economic Aid to Hard-Hit Small Businesses, Nonprofits, and Venues Act, financial relief is available for small businesses that have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), offered through the Small Business Administration (SBA), can provide relief to your business with a forgivable loan that can help you keep your workers on payroll and support other types of business expenses.

PPP Application Eligibility

We understand that this is a stressful time for you and your business. But we’re here to support you. At this time we are no longer accepting applications for this program. We're proud to have helped local small businesses survive the COVID-19 pandemic through the financial support of the SBA Paycheck Protection Program (PPP).
