Have you applied or been thinking about applying for a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan? Are you wondering about the next steps? With the PPP program closed right now, are you wondering what other options may be available for small businesses?

During our last program, we received a number of PPP related questions and are thrilled to announce that Susan Mazza, Deputy District Director, Vermont District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration will be joining us for a webinar. Susan will provide an overview of various loan programs to assist small businesses during these financially challenging times and will be available for questions and answers. While there are still a lot of unknowns as the rules continue to be written, we’ll benefit from having the most up-to-date information available during the session. We hope you’ll join us.
