Vermont Business Magazine Today, Governor Phil Scott and Lindsay Kurrle, Secretary of the Agency of Commerce and Community Development announced the distribution of S2.S million in federal CARES Act funding for Restart Vermont Technical Assistance.

This funding will deliver robust support to Vermont businesses impacted by the economic downturn due to COVID-19. The funding, allocated by the Vermont General Assembly in Act L37, leverages existing statewide and regional assets to reach a broad range of companies in every sector and region.

The Regional Development Corporations of Vermont (RDCs of VT) were among five organizations selected to implement Restart programming. The RDC program, Restart Vermont Technical Assistance (ReWA), will leverage a regional and statewide network of for-profit and non-profit technical assistance providers to help small businesses.

Kurrle said at the governor's press briefing today that this could include Website development, or advice in how to lay out a social distancing appropriate restaurant, or in any way in which to deliver their srevice.

Each RDC will deploy a Recovery Navigator to work one-on-one with businesses and determine the best form of technical assistance to help each business on its path to recovery.

The Navigator, client business, and technical assistance provider will develop a scope of work appropriate to solving - the client's issues. The cost of the work will be covered by the grant.

The program is expected to assist over 250 businesses with grants averaging $3,000. ln Lamoille County the RDCS ReVTA Program will be administered by the Lamoille Economic Development Corporation.

Businesses that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and would like to receive technical assistance and businesses that can provide technical assistance should register to participate in the program at: www.VermontEconomicDevelopment.com.

About 250 businesses are expected to receive technical assistance through the ReVTA program between now and December 20, the deadline to expend CARES Act funds. Technical Assistance providers and impacted businesses are encouraged to register now.
