How long should professionals support someone as a small business owner?
Many systems are time limited. Schools, Work Force Investment programs, and Vocational Rehabilitation are among these. Using these services should be done “planfully” with necessary long-term supports being accommodated through the business design (e.g. having a business, family member, or employee providing assistance),through purchase of business services paid from sales (e.g., accounting, marketing, sales), or through extended services available from state General Fund and/or Medicaid Waiver dollars used by Developmental Disability and Mental Health programs throughout the country.
