JACKSON, Tenn. Another round of Paycheck Protection loans is set to begin, and there’s a chance your local business could greatly benefit.
The Paycheck Protection Program which started in March of 2020 is intended to help struggling businesses in the aftermath of the coronavirus shutdowns.
After a successful first run, the program is gearing up for a second wave of loan applications.
“Don’t allow the process to intimidate you from applying. There are resources and services that are available,” said Monique Merriweather, the director of the Tennessee Small Business Development Center.
Merriweather says they’ve had hundreds of small businesses in Jackson reach out to them.
