Many who are starting their businesses, need assistance in more ways than one, mostly support from our SBA offices and its employees, who should hold our hands if  need be, they should support us, and reassure us we are going to make our business venture work... They should counsel  us on how to become successful, and not tell us what we will not be able to do, and how we need money to receive money... They are so negative,  and they never have any positive words, or tell us how we can acquire money to receive the money we need to borrow, and how we can go about acquiring the amount needed, to be successful.  We need support and assistance with our issues concerning our business and the Business Initiative assist me with my issues concerning my business, some of us have learning disabilities and need has on assistance. I go into the office with the same issues everytime and leave with the same issues I had when I arrived from the beginning of the initial meeting, this should not, but it happens...

Hi Dhez, At this time we are in a content freeze because we are merging Business.gov with SBA.gov. Nevertheless, I will forward your suggestion on to the new development team. It would help if you can point me to some of the local California programs you have in mind. Happy new year and thanks for the suggestion, Stuart
