Entreprenuer Business Support

The purpose of the entrepreneur support program is to provide a network of resources and service providers to entrepreneurs in Cowlitz County. We have identified the need for small business support, development, and capital as the priority focus for the current economic environment. Our organization is in the development stages of the following service and support programs:

* Small Business Incubator facility - provides low-cost, subsidized, office space and staff support to entrepreneurs and home-based businesses. This allows businesses to have a professional, physical office, and mailing address for clients and correspondence.
