I am disabled from an Auto Accident with an Illegal alien driving Drunk and do not have the resources to apply for a SBA loan, and the only way for me to work is open my own small business. Yes I collect Social Security Disability but that is like getting nothing at all, Where are the grants for people in my situation?

The SBIR/STTR Program has been around for almost 25 years now, and provides over $2 Billion in small business technology development grants annually. Eleven federal agencies are involved -- indeed are required by law to provide these grants. I've been helping companies win the competition for these grants for over 20 years. See my website (www.SBIRcoach.com) for information about how the SBIR Program works. I'd love to have a dialog with you about this source of funding for entreperneurs.
