The National Urban League has launched a virtual series to support small businesses interested in resources available under the CARES Act to assist with their recovery from the effects of COVID19. Signed into law in March 2020, the CARES Act provided billions of federal dollars in relief to small businesses facing economic disruption to their operations due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Funding for CARES Act was provided by the Department of Commerce Minority Business Development Agency.
