For 50 years, SNAP (Spokane Neighborhood Action Partners) has been the leading local and regional advocate for the most vulnerable individuals living in our community.
As a part of SNAP, the Women's Business Center (WBC) exists to increase the entrepreneurial capacities of socially and economically diverse women, minorities, and veterans - both men and women are welcome.
The WBC seeks to strengthen the community through the creation of sustainable new businesses, new jobs, and the promotion of financial self-sufficiency. To achieve these goals, the WBC provides a number of resources for business owners in any phase of development, including:
- Training/classes/workshops tailored to help small businesses be successful
- One-on-one business assistance and coaching
- Networking events, affinity groups, and annual conferences
- Resources for finding financing for small businesses
The WBC hosts an orientation on a weekly basis at their location in the East Central Community Center (500 S. Stone) that explains the various resources they offer. One-on-one business counseling and additional classes are only available after completing the orientation.
