Hey BOSS! Many individuals dream of starting businesses but obstacles like lack of access to startup funding or limited business training get in the way. Entrepreneurs are often unable to start or grow their businesses due in part to poor credit history, lack of capital, and limited access to financial services. The Small Business program at HOPE helps business owners who dream of starting or growing their own small business. Through an 4 Week 8 Series Business Development Program - which includes a coaching and business development course, anchored by entrepreneurship training - participants are empowered with the tools and skills to successfully navigate the path to small business ownership, combining business training, personal development, access to professional services, and financial counseling.
