Small Business Assistance
The Federal Government passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) to help support businesses and families impacted by COVID-19. The CARES Act expanded the SBA Section 7(a) loan program, also referred to as the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), which aims to support small businesses. We are encouraging our small business borrowers affected by COVID-19 to apply for a loan with DCCU under this new program.
Visit the U.S. Department of the Treasury website for details regarding assistance for small businesses that can benefit from the Paycheck Protection Program.
