THESE TRAINING CLASSES PROVIDE THE CORE COMPETENCIES NEEDED TO START OR RUN A SMALL BUSINESS FOCUSING ON BUSINESS BASICS, MARKETING, TECHNOLOGY, CREDIT MANAGEMENT AND FINANCE. IN ADDITION TO TRAINING REFUGEES IN FARMING OPERATIONS, THE FARM PROGRAM PROVIDES HANDS ON EXPERIENCE IN DISTRIBUTION AND MARKETING OF HARVESTS. AN SBA FUNDED PROGRAM FACILITATED TEAMS OF SMALL BUSINESSES; WOMEN, MINORITY AND SERVICE DISABLED OWNED BUSINESSES TO BID ON LARGER FEDERAL CONTRACTING OPPORTUNITIES THAN HAD HISTORICALLY BEEN WITHIN THEIR COMPETENCIES.


THE STATE OF OREGON PROVIDES FUNDING, MATCHED BY HHS' ASSET FOR INDEPENDENCE (AFI) AGENCY, TO ASSIST LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS IN CREATING AND EXPANDING THEIR SMALL BUSINESSES. THE INDIVIDUALS SAVE THEIR OWN MONEY, ATTEND BUSINESS TRAINING SESSIONS, AND HAVE THEIR SAVINGS AUGMENTED BY THE OREGON AND AFI FUNDING. THE PROGRAM WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE TRAINING PROGRAM IN FACILITATING THE DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS SKILLS. MANY OF THESE IDA CLIENTS ULTIMATELY CONVERT TO MICRO-LOAN CLIENTS, USING THEIR IDA ASSET PURCHASE TO COLLATERALIZE THEIR BUSINESS LOAN.
