The 8(a) Business Development program is a federal contracting and training program authorized by Sections 7(j)(10) and 8(a) of the Small Business Act for experienced small business owners who are socially and economically disadvantaged. Businesses that participate in the program receive training and technical assistance designed to strengthen their ability to compete effectively in the American economy.

The federal government's goal is to award at least 5% of all federal contracting dollars to women-owned small businesses each year. To help provide a level playing field for women business owners, the government limits competition for certain contracts to businesses that participate in the Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Federal Contract program.

SBA offers low-interest disaster loans to help homeowners, renters, and businesses of all sizes recover from declared disasters. These loans can be used for losses not covered by insurance or FEMA funding, and for business operating expenses that could have been met had the disaster not occurred.

In response to ongoing challenges with widespread permitting delays that have stalled recovery and rebuilding efforts in states like California, President Donald J. Trump has empowered the SBA to implement new regulations through a new executive order. These regulatory changes will enable SBA disaster borrowers to bypass certain state and local permitting requirements if the borrower has been unable to obtain requisite approvals after an extended period of time.
