This San Bernardino Weather-Impacted Resource Guide has been created to assist the businesses throughout San Bernardino that have been affected by the recent snow disaster. Specifically, the cities of Crestline, Running Springs, Blue Jay, Lake Arrowhead, Big Bear, and surrounding communities. The resource guide was created on March 12, 2023, and will be continually updated as more information is received. If your business is one of those businesses that has been negatively impacted by the recent weather, please use this guide and feel free to call us for one-on-one assistance at no cost to you.
The Orange County Inland Empire SBDC Network (OCIE SBDC), in partnership with federal, state and local agencies, has created this page for businesses that have been disaster-impacted by recent snowstorms. The OCIE SBDC is funded by the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) to provide resources, consulting, and training to business owners in the region. Our goal is to make sure that we have a comprehensive site for you to find information for your business. We also want you to know that we have over 100 business consultants on our team, and we are here to assist you one-on-one through this process. We will be here for you in the short term as you assess your immediate needs, and we will be here for you in the long term as we get your business up, running and growing again.
