There's many business resources in the Greater New Haven area -- which is good news for small business owners but also means that it can be difficult to navigate the options. The resource fair brings together representatives from businesses and organizations under one roof so you can easily learn about the small business services available in our local community.
Commitment to a Whole-Community Event
All offerings will be in both English and Spanish and Spanish translators will be available to attendees throughout the conference.
