TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE PROVIDERS
FOR THE COMMUNITY EXPRESS LOAN PROGRAM
The CommunityExpress Pilot Loan Program is a collaborative effort between the SBA and the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) and its member organizations. The SBA and the NCRC view management and technical assistance as critical to the development, growth, and success of CommunityExpress borrowers. The CommunityExpress program was therefore conceived and structured to ensure that borrowers under the program receive appropriate pre- and post-loan closing management and technical assistance.
Effective October 1, 2008, SBA introduced the newly restructured and enhanced Community Express Pilot Loan program, which has been redesigned to better focus SBA’s financial and technical assistance resources on the needs of the Nation’s underserved communities. Under this program, approved SBA lenders are being authorized to adopt SBA’s most streamlined and expedited loan procedures to provide a unique combination of financial and technical assistance to borrowers located in these communities.
