As Central Oregon continues to deal with the arrival of COVID-19 in our community, the impact on local companies is growing. However, business advising is still available through your Small Business Development Center. Phone or video conference appointments can be scheduled by calling 541-383-7290 or emailing sbdc@cocc.edu.
Our long-time advising staff live in the area and have experience with both urban and rural industries. They have worked through tough times in the past and coached businesses in challenging situations. We hope to continue to support our fellow business owners during the current uncertainty as we all move through uncharted territory together.
Many business owners have questions about how to weather this difficult time. Here are some state and federal links that might be helpful as you gather information and weigh your options:
