Fairfield business earns California Covid-19 small business relief grant
FAIRFIELD TLW Public Relations has been awarded a $5,000 California Small Business Covid-19 Relief Grant.
“I am happy to have been chosen by the grant’s administrators in a highly competitive process,” TLW Public Relations founder and principal consultant Deloris Roach said in a press release. “I plan to use the money to revitalize my business; reconnect with old customers and look for new ones, as Covid restrictions are lifted.”
The grants are part of the state’s efforts to support small and micro businesses and nonprofits affected by California’s pandemic-related health and safety mandates. They were issued under the auspices of the state’s Office of the Small Business Advocate, a part of the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development.
What do about 95 percent of Tennessee s businesses have in common? They employ 50 or fewer employees. You might even own, or work for, one of these businesses.
Small businesses are truly the backbone of our state s economy and have an incalculable impact on our communities. Unfortunately, many of these businesses are the ones hurting the most right now.
To assist these types of businesses, and further enhance our stateâs business-friendly reputation, the Tennessee General Assembly created the Office of the Small Business Advocate in 2010. I took over the position of small business advocate a little over two years ago.
As the name suggests, my job is to assist small business owners with needs they may have related to state government.

(WASHINGTON) Inauguration Day already was historic for women, with Kamala Harris becoming the first woman and person of color to become vice president, and she soon could be joined by a similarly record-breaking Cabinet.
Twelve of Biden’s nominations for Cabinet and Cabinet-level positions are women, including eight women of color, and if they’re all confirmed it would shatter former President Bill Clinton’s record of nine women serving concurrently, which happened during his second term.
When former President Donald Trump was in office, six women served at the same time, excluding two who served in acting roles, per Rutgers University’s Center of American Women and Politics.
