SBA Announces STEP Grants to Help States Pay for Efforts to Increase Small Business Exporting

BA Grants $30 Million to States for Trade, Export Promotion

STEP Initiative Will Help Small Businesses Export 

Release Date: September 27, 2011 
Contact: David J. Hall (202) 205-6697 
Release Number: 11-54
Internet Address: http://www.sba.gov/news

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Small Business Administration is providing $30 million in grants to states, territories, and the District of Columbia, to help increase exporting by small businesses during the next 12 months. The grants were authorized by the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, under the State Trade and Export Promotion Program (STEP).

The STEP program, launched in March, aligns with President Obama’s National Export Initiative. The President’s initiative calls for doubling U.S. exports in five years – and in so doing, supporting two million jobs. The program provides federal government funding for 65 to75 percent of program costs, with states supplying the remainder. 

SBA Administrator Karen Mills announced the awards today at an event in Raleigh, N.C., at Raleigh Denim, a small business that produces and exports denim products. Forty-seven states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands received STEP grants.

“Strengthening the nation’s economy through a substantial increase of U.S. exports is a top priority for the Administration and the agency,” said Mills. “This is a unique partnership between the federal government and the states. Sharing responsibilities and resources will help new small exporters across the country enter and succeed in the global market.”

The funding will support participation in foreign trade missions, foreign market sales trips, subscriptions to services provided by the Department of Commerce, website translations fees, design of international marketing media, trade show exhibitions, participation in training workshops, and other critical export initiatives.

Small businesses that want to receive assistance under the STEP program should contact the organizations serving the states in which they are located. For a list of these organizations and more information about the STEP program, visit http://www.sba.gov/about-offices-content/1/2889/resources/14315.

The SBA anticipates it will conduct a new competition for STEP program grants during the winter of 2011. Awards will be made in September 2012 for export support services by states over the following 12 months.

Susan Grigsby's brother Steve died a painful death fighting for care as an uninsured American. Susan watched, horrified, as the GOP Presidential Candidates on CNN's Tea Party Debate stood silent when the the audience cheered for the idea that we as a society should just let an uninsured man die. Now Susan wants an answer from each and every GOP candidate.

President Obama's American Jobs Act and Its Impact for African American Families

 

As you’ve seen, the President announced the American Jobs Act before a joint session of Congress last Thursday evening. The American Jobs Act reflects a commitment to strengthen the recovery and help increase access to jobs for all Americans. With unemployment among African-Americans at an unacceptably high rate of 16.7 percent – and 1.4 million African-Americans out of work for more than six months – the President believes that inaction is not an option. That’s why the President is putting out a plan to increase the pace of job creation, and why he is committed to fighting for Congress to act on this plan. These measures – which will expand opportunities for the long-term unemployed to reenter the workforce, provide incentives for businesses to hire, and make investments in revitalizing schools, infrastructure and neighborhoods – will help create new job opportunities in African-American communities and across the country.

The President’s plan will put Americans back to work in key areas that are central to America’s future competitiveness.  It will repair and modernize classrooms across the country and make sure that teachers who have been laid off because of budget cuts can be brought back to work.

• Preventing Teacher Layoffs:  As many as 280,000 education jobs are on the chopping block in the upcoming school year due to continued state budget constraints. These cuts could have a significant impact on children’s education, through the reduction of school days, increased class size, and the elimination of key classes and services. The President’s plan will support state and local efforts to retain, rehire, and hire early childhood, elementary, and secondary educators (including teachers, guidance counselors, classroom assistants, afterschool personnel, tutors, and literacy and math coaches).  These efforts will help ensure that schools are able to keep teachers in the classroom, preserve or extend the regular school day and school year, and also support important after-school activities.

• Modernizing At Least 35,000 Public Schools – From Science Labs and Internet-Ready Classrooms to Renovated Facilities($30 billion): The President’s plan calls for substantial investments in our school infrastructure, modernizing and upgrading America’s public schools to meet 21st century needs.  The cost of maintaining more than 100,000 public schools is substantial for already overstretched districts.  The accumulated backlog of deferred maintenance and repair amounts to at least $270 billion.  Schools spend over $6 billion annually on their energy bills, more than they spend on computers and textbooks combined.  For children in the nation’s poorest districts, these deferred projects too often mean overcrowded schools with crumbling ceilings and a lack of the basic wiring infrastructure needed for computers, projectors, and other technology. The President’s plan will invest $30 billion in enhancing the condition of our nation’s public schools – with $25 billion going to K-12 schools, including a priority for rural schools and dedicated funding for Bureau of Indian Education funded schools, and $5 billion to community colleges (including tribal colleges). The range of critical repairs and needed construction projects would put hundreds of thousands of Americans – construction workers, engineers, maintenance staff, boiler repairman, and electrical workers – back to work. 

• Safer, Healthier, and Technologically-Advanced Schools of the Future:   Permissible uses of funds would include a range of emergency repair and renovation projects, greening and energy efficiency upgrades, asbestos abatement and removal, and modernization efforts to build new science and computer labs and to upgrade technology in our schools.   Local districts will also be able to put these funds to work to invest in upgrades to allow schools to continue to serve as centers of the community – from improvements to school ground outdoor learning and play areas to upgrades to shared spaces for adult vocational and job development centers.  These efforts will not only make our schools safer and healthier learning environments, but also ensure that our schools are fully equipped to teach 21^st century skills in math, science, and other technical fields and to serve as effective centers for workforce training and development.

• A Focus on Schools in Need:   To ensure that schools in the most disrepair will be able to make necessary enhancements, 40 percent of the funds will be directed toward the 100 largest high-need public school districts. This investment is particularly important as national surveys have found that the schools with the highest proportion of lower-income and minority students are least likely to have functional laboratory equipment. The remaining 60 percent will be directed towards states to allocate, and states would have flexibility to use those funds to service other high-need districts, including schools in rural areas.

• Modernizing Community Colleges to Train a 21^st Century Workforce:  America’s community college system was built up over 40 years ago to support education and training activities of that time.  These colleges are in desperate need of upgrades to ensure that facilities are equipped meet the demands of the 21st century workforce.  Deferred maintenance at community colleges is estimated to be $100 billion. As part of this school modernization initiative, the President’s plan proposes $5 billion of investments for facilities modernization needs at community colleges. Investment in modernizing community colleges fills a key resource gap, and ensures these local, bedrock education institutions have the facilities and equipment to address current workforce demands in today’s highly technical and growing fields.

Other highlights of the plan include:

• The extension of unemployment insurance will benefit 1.4 million African-Americans and their families, while providing targeted support for the long-term unemployed. In addition to extending unemployment insurance, the President is calling for reforms and tax incentives that will help the long-term unemployed secure a job.

• Support for subsidized jobs and summer/year-round jobs for African-American youth – for whom unemployment is above 30%. In an environment with an unemployment rate of 32.4% for African-American youths, the President is proposing to build on successful programs like the TANF Emergency Contingency Fund to create jobs and provide training for those hardest-hit by the recession.

• An extension and expansion of the payroll tax cut for nearly 20 million African-American workers. By extending the payroll tax cut for employees next year and expanding it to cut payroll taxes in half, the President’s plan will help increase the paychecks of nearly 20 million African-American workers – providing them with more money to spend in their communities.

• Tax cuts to help over 100,000 African American owned small businesses.  The President is proposing tax cuts that will go to every small business nationwide, providing incentives to hire and make new investments.

• A commitment to rebuilding and revitalizing communities across the country will target investments to the communities hardest-hit by the recession. The President’s investments in infrastructure include a school construction initiative with a significant commitment to the largest urban school districts, an investment in revitalizing communities that have been devastated by foreclosures, and a new initiative to expand infrastructure employment opportunities for minorities, women, and socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.

SBA report on health care for small companies

 

The report shows that "states have tried a variety of approaches to improve health plan coverage and, particularly, to improve health insurance offered by small businesses." Still, health insurance coverage in small companies (fewer than 100 employees) declined between 1998 and 2009. Whether the current federal credit for small employers, which began in 2010, will help remains to be seen.

New SBA Women-Owned Small Business Program

 

New SBA Women-Owned Small Business Program

While the WOSB Program was formally launched by the SBA back in February 2011, it wasn't until April 2011 that the federal procurement officials were able to set aside contracts under the program. Many women business owners may be unaware of the opportunities that the program presents.

National Funding Opportunities

 

National Funding Opportunities

Grants Promote Technology to Address Social Issues
Verizon Foundation 
The Verizon Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Verizon Communications, works to improve lives through literacy, knowledge, and a readiness for the 21st Century. The Foundation provides support to nonprofit organizations throughout the United States that address one of the following funding priorities: supporting technology-based approaches to literacy and education for both adults and children, preventing domestic violence and helping victims gain independence, improving healthcare through technology, and helping people understand how to use the technology of the Internet safely. The average grant size ranges from $5,000 to $10,000. The application deadline is October 16, 2011. Visit the Foundation’s website to submit an online application.

Support for Walking and Biking Safety Initiatives
National Center for Safe Routes to School Mini-Grant Program 
The National Center for Safe Routes to School assists communities throughout the U.S. in enabling and encouraging children to safely walk and bike to school. The Center's Mini-Grant Program will provide 25 grants of $1,000 to community nonprofit organizations, K-12 schools, and local government agencies for projects that focus on increasing safe walking and/or bicycling to school. Funded activities include improving safety, increasing the number of students walking and bicycling to school, emphasizing links between health and physical activity, exploring environmental concerns, etc. Applications must be submitted by October 19, 2011. Visit the Center’s website to review the Mini-Grant Call for Applications.

Wilderness Protection Programs Funded
The Conservation Alliance 
The Conservation Alliance is a group of outdoor businesses whose collective contributions support grassroots citizen-action groups and their efforts to protect wild and natural areas in North America where outdoor enthusiasts spend their time. Funded programs should focus primarily on direct action to protect specific threatened wild places and waterways. The Alliance is not looking for mainstream education or scientific research projects, but rather for active campaigns. Grants of up to $35,000 are provided. Before applying for funding, an organization must first be nominated by one of the Alliance's member companies. The upcoming nomination deadline is November 1, 2011. The Alliance will send each nominated organization a request for proposal, including instructions on submitting a full request, which is due December 10, 2011. Grant criteria and application guidelines are available on the Conservation Alliance website.

Youth Volunteers Recognized
The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards 
The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards is a nationwide program that honors young people in grades 5-12 who are volunteering in their communities. Youth who have engaged in a volunteer activity that occurred during the 12 months prior to the date of application are eligible to apply. Local Honorees are selected in November and from these winners two State Honorees are chosen in each state and the District of Columbia. State Honorees receive an award of $1,000 and an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, DC for national recognition events. Out of the State Honorees, ten National Honorees are selected to receive an additional award of $5,000 as well as a $5,000 grant for a nonprofit organization of their choice. The application deadline is November 1, 2011. Visit the Prudential website for online application information.
