The Business Preparedness and Resiliency Program (Business PREP) helps small businesses prepare for emergencies and enhance the resiliency of their operations, assets, and physical space in the event of a disaster or business interruption. Small business owners impacted by Hurricane Sandy are eligible for an on-site risk assessment and other informational resources and can also qualify for a grant for up to $3,000 to buy items or equipment that will improve their disaster resiliency. Please note this program is still operational but no longer receives CDBG-DR funds.
