Economic Injury Disaster Loans and Advance Program has reopened

The Small Business Administration announced earlier this week that its Economic Injury Disaster Loans and Advance Program has reopened to all eligible small businesses impacted by COVID-19. If you were unable to participate in the Paycheck Protection Program or have major expenses that were not covered by the PPP loan, the EIDL's low-interest loan program may be right for you.

Access to this loan program had been suspended for most small businesses; due to funds still being available the SBA has re-opened the program to all eligible small businesses and non-profits.

We also want to remind you that you still have until Tuesday, June 30 to apply for the Payroll Protection Program loan.
