Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA)

Federal agency dedicated exclusively to the growth of minority-owned businesses, funding a national network of Business Centers offering free counseling on capital, contracts, and markets.

Why I recommend it: Their Business Centers are the fastest route to contracting and capital introductions.

Government & Community Small-Business Support (Founder's Directory)

The government and community pages of the Founder's Directory: SBA, local SBDCs, SCORE mentoring, MBDA business centers, Women's Business Centers, Grants.gov, SBIR/STTR R&D grants, plus Comcast RISE, Verizon Digital Ready, Hello Alice, IFundWomen, and LISC.

In plain terms: This directory lists government and community programs that support small business owners and startups. You can use it to find free business coaching, connect with expert mentors, and search for grants.

Why I recommend it: Free 1:1 business coaching from an SBDC or SCORE mentor is the most underused resource in this whole library. Book a session before you pay a consultant.
