The University of Montana’s Accelerate Montana received nearly $300,000 in CARES Act Recovery Grant funding to support COVID-19 economic response and recovery for women in business.

The funds from the U.S. Economic Development Administration will create and support online micro-courses and accelerator programs for rural, Indigenous and urban Montana women interested in or already in business. The programming will address the pandemic’s economic impacts on small businesses and startups, and the courses – while designed specifically for women and their needs – will be accessible and open to all.
