Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Program (EDP)
The Community Futures Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Program (EDP) is a business advisory and loans program that reduces obstacles people with disabilities or ongoing health issues may face. The EDP provides specialized assistance directly to rural entrepreneurs with disabilities.
At Community Futures, we believe that managing ongoing health or disability issues should not be a barrier to business success.
EDP Advisory and Loans:
- are for business owners who self-identify and self-disclose a disability or ongoing health issue.
- provide access to specialized assistance to help you successfully run your business.
- have helped business owners who live with cyclical health issues, physical, mental, and learning disabilities.
If you would like to start, buy or grow your business, call us at 250-992-2322 to book an appointment with our Business Analyst.
Bookkeeper Referrals
Community Futures is a small business resource centre that helps people to start or grow their business by providing free business advice and financing to start-up or already existing businesses. We offer business training in a wide range of topics for entrepreneurs.
Over time, we have discovered a need to find and match clients to bookkeepers. Our clients are in different stages in their business development - we have clients that need to have everything set up and explained as well as clients that are already in business, but need to find a reliable bookkeeper so they can concentrate on running their business.
In order to help us with this process we would like to create a database of bookkeepers. To be part of our database, bookkeepers need complete to complete our survey (link to the survey is below). Of course, this database will also benefit you, the bookkeeper. You will receive referrals without having to spend any time or money on marketing.
If you know of any other bookkeepers that would be interested in being a part of the database as well, please forward this information to them or provide us with their contact information so we can get in touch with them.
If you are interested in being a part of our database, please fill out the survey here.
If you have any questions, please contact our office at 250-992-2322.
