Available Programs from the CARES Act
The CARES Act, also known as Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act was passed as part of the $2 trillion dollar Federal Disaster Relief Program on March 27, 2020. This act is intended to provide assistance to small businesses, certain non-profits and employers. We’ve broken down the components of the CARES Act to help you assess which assistance you may need.

Provides cash-flow assistance through 100% federally guaranteed loans to employers who maintain their payroll during this emergency period. IF employers maintain their payroll, the loans will be forgiven.

Provides immediate relief to small businesses with non-disaster SBA loans. These loans include 7(a), 504, and micro-loans including principle, interest, and fees for 6 months.
