The economic consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic will be particularly and acutely felt by small businesses. On March 20, 2020, Governor Cuomo announced that 100% of the non-essential work force in New York State must stay home. Small businesses must navigate these uncertain times without knowing when the end will be in sight. To help, the State and Federal Governments have made resources available, with more sure to come. See below for details and resources.
