COVID-19 Response

We have compiled a list of various resources to help Small Businesses during the COVID-19 Outbreak. The list includes loan resources, unemployment insurance FAQs, and health protection guidance from the CDC and OSHA.

The Virginia Small Business Development Center network hosted two webinars to review the application process for SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) available for Virginia small businesses and non-profits.

How will the Family First Coronavirus Response Act impact your business? What do you need to do now to apply for SBA Disaster Assistance Loans? What are innovative things local businesses doing to innovate in response to COVID-19? Longwood SBDC convened business leaders and consultants to discuss these topics and more the afternoon of March 20.

COVID-19 has proven to be a disrupting force to our lives, to our communities, and especially to our small businesses. We recognize that the rapidly changing landscape around COVID-19 has had a significant impact on many of our clients’ businesses. As a result, we are adjusting our programming and consulting efforts to best provide what you specifically need during this difficult time. We are here to support you as business owners in our 26 county and city coverage area however we can.
