Eligibility:

Gross revenue of $2.5 million or less based on the most recently filed tax return

Must have been impacted with a business interruption or closure due to COVID-19 and the health and safety restrictions

Must currently be operating or have a clear plan to re-open when permitted

Grant Determination:

Eligible businesses will then be scored based on COVID-19 impact factors incorporated into the Program’s priority criteria so that distribution can take into account priority key factors, including the following: 1. Geographic distribution based on COVID-19 health and safety restrictions following California’s Blueprint for a Safer Economy and county status and the new Regional Stay At Home Order; 2. Industry sectors most impacted by the pandemic; and 3. Underserved small business groups served by the State supported network of small business centers (i.e., businesses majority owned and run on a daily basis by women, minorities/persons of color, veterans and businesses located in low-to-moderate income and rural communities).
