Federal Resources for Business Owners

Yesterday, Governor Herbert announced an enhanced effort to connect Utah businesses with federal resources. That effort will be spearheaded by a Rapid Response Team composed of volunteers from The Utah Economic Response Task Force, World Trade Center Utah, and the SBA Utah District Office. That organization will be supporting the SBA as they respond to inquiries about and applications to new federal assistance in the CARES Act.

  • Paycheck Protection Program

The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) is a cornerstone of aid offered to provide small business loans on favorable terms to borrowers impacted by the current state of economic uncertainty. The national demand for funding in this program will outstrip the supply, so it is imperative that businesses reach out to their banks this week to qualify for loans. Utah banks and credit unions are working around the clock to provide aid to small businesses.

  • Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program

The Small Business Administration’s Economic Injury Disaster Loan Program (EIDL) provides small businesses with working capital loans of up to $2 million to provide vital economic support to small businesses to overcome the temporary loss of revenue they are experiencing. All small business owners in Utah are eligible to apply for a low-interest loan.

  • Utah Leads Together Small Business Bridge Loan 

The Utah Leads Together Small Business Bridge Loan provides short-term loans ($5,000 – $20,000) to businesses with 50 or fewer employees to bridge the gap until federal funding is disbursed. Applications for the first cycle of the Bridge Loan Fund are currently being evaluated. The next cycle for applications begins on April 13, 2020. 

If businesses in your community have any questions about these different assistance programs, they’re encouraged to contact Utah’s Rapid Response Team for small businesses by either submitting questions to this URL (https://wtcutah.formstack.com/forms/rapid_response_team_intake) or contacting the SBA disaster assistance customer service center by phone (1-800-659-2955) or by email ([email protected]).
