The Small Business Administration (SBA) awarded a $150,000 Project Grant under the Women's Business Ownership Assistance program (CFDA 59.043) to Partner Community Capital, Inc.

The grant funding will enable Ncif to deliver training, counseling, and technical assistance services aimed at assisting small businesses owned and controlled by women, with an emphasis on socially and economically disadvantaged individuals. The goal is to remove discriminatory barriers women entrepreneurs face in accessing capital, markets, management, and other critical resources for business growth. Ncif has previously received over $1.5 million in Women's Business Ownership Assistance grants from the SBA to offer a range of entrepreneurship support services focused on women-owned small businesses.
