​Small businesses seeking financial relief resources or emergency working capital to keep employees and/or support my operations can leverage a variety programs offered by the federal government.

In addition, the Nebraska Department of Economic Development (NDED) has funds available to provide short-term working capital to help businesses retain jobs, open new businesses or expand operations to create jobs, or manufacture medical supplies.
