With the August 8 deadline for PPP applications quickly approaching, governments are seeking ways to stimulate economic recovery and support small businesses in their communities.
The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) is a loan established by the CARES Act that is designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll. PPP loans are forgiven if all employee retention criteria are met and if the funds are used for eligible expenses.
Small businesses are under great duress and are seeking clear information on what PPP loans they are eligible for and how to access said loans. U.S. Digital Response (USDR) is placing pro-bono technologists to help government agencies at the state and local level respond to economic needs in their communities while also building tools and workflows to aid in economic resiliency.
Government teams in need of assistance in any of these areas can share the details in this request form and a member of USDR’s team will follow up within 24 hours to help. Learn more at www.USDigitalResponse.org.
