Small Business Economic Injury workshop

Attention All Lake County Small Business Owners

WorkforceLake invites you to attend an important meeting with representatives from the U.S. Small Business Administration to learn more about how to obtain a low-interest SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL)

Andy Nester, consultant for the Lake County Small Business Development Center, will also be here to provide information on the services accessible to local businesses through the LC SBDC Hub.
As a result of the 2015 Jerusalem, Rocky and Valley Fires Lake County was declared a federal disaster area.

If you have suffered substantial economic injury* and are one of the following types of businesses located in a declared disaster area, you may be eligible for an SBA Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL):

• Small business
• Small agricultural cooperative
• Most private nonprofit organizations

*Substantial economic injury means the business is unable to meet its obligations and to pay its ordinary
necessary operating expenses. EIDLs provide the necessary working capital to help small businesses survive until normal operations resume after a disaster.
