The SBA offers current and potential businesses access to a variety of services and resources, including pre-business workshops, and technical and management assistance. An excellent resource for these programs is the Service Corps of Retired Executives. SCORE volunteers provide expert advice and business counseling based on their many years of firsthand experience and shared knowledge on virtually every aspect of business.

In addition, SBA offers specific assistance to women-owned businesses through women’s business ownership representatives in SBA district offices. Your WBOR will be able to inform you about local resources and schedules of specific SBA programs that may be useful to you.
