West Texas Business Navigator Program
What is the West Texas Business Navigator Program?
What does the program offer?
The Business Navigator program is built to increase equity in marginalized business & entrepreneur communities.
The West Texas Business Navigator Program will target small business owners who are women, minorities, disabled, veterans, or people in the Big Country's rural counties. If you are an entrepreneur, think about your challenges and contact us so that we can direct you or assist you with the great resources this program offers.
Its Purpose
In May of 2021, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) authorized a $1 million grant through the American Rescue Plan to pilot a new program targeting increased equity among minority business owners in underserved areas called the Community Navigator Pilot Program.
The Abilene Chamber of Commerce has been selected as one of 51 grantees to receive funding through this program. It will be working with organizations like the Abilene Black Chamber of Commerce to execute these programs.
"As a black small business owner, the (ABCC) chamber has provided stability and a powerful network for my enterprises."
