Vocational Rehabilitation SEE Handbook - RESOURCES Most SBA staff are not experienced with working with people who have disabilities and their resources may not be accessible to people with special needs. Therefore, it is important that you visit your local SBA Small Business Development Center (SBDC), acquaint yourself with the facility and resources, and meet the staff. Assess their accessibility or lack of it and determine the supports a consumer would need to use its services. A consumer might need you to accompany him or her on one or more visits to the SBA. Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs) - The SBA administers SBDCs to help current and prospective owners develop and manage their small businesses. SBDCs are a cooperative effort of the SBA, private sector, educational community, and state and local governments. There are over 950 SBDCs located primarily at colleges and universities in all 50 states. The customer should be expected to contribute as much as possible from his or her own resources. If additional funds are needed for start-up, all options should be considered. Sources of small business funding may include the following:
