The U.S. Small Business Administration has resources available for veterans who want to start their own businesses or for small businesses that may have been affected by employees who have been deployed.
The numbers are substantial, according to the SBA: Nearly one in 10 small businesses in this country are veteran-owned; veterans are 45 percent more likely to be self-employed than nonveterans; and businesses owned by female vets have increased 297 percent from 2007 to 2012.
The SBA’s website has collected a list of programs that can offer help, especially in navigating the complexities of returning home for members of the Guard or Reserve after being deployed.
It has information on starting a business, financing, mentoring and training and selling to the government. It can be found on the website www.sba.gov/content/veteran-service-disabled-veteran-owned.
