The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) was created in 1953 as
an independent agency of the federal government to aid, counsel,
assist and protect the interests of small business concerns, to preserve
free competitive enterprise and to maintain and strengthen the overall
economy of our nation.
They recognize that small business is critical to our economic
recovery and strength, to building America's future, and to
helping the United States compete in today's global marketplace.
Although SBA has grown and evolved in the years since it was
established in 1953, the bottom line mission remains the same.
The SBA helps Americans start, build and grow businesses.
Through an extensive network of field offices and partnerships
with public and private organizations, SBA delivers its services to
people throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, the U. S. Virgin
Islands and Guam.
In terms of its resources for women:
