- The U.S. Small Business Administration’s Office of Native American Affairs serves as the Agency’s small business resource to connect American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian entrepreneurs to all Agency resources for business development and business expansion. This includes programs implemented by our Office of Capital Access, Office of Government Contracting and Business Development, Office of Entrepreneurial Development, and Office of Disaster Assistance. The primary service delivery methods used by the Office of Native American Affairs in American Indians, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian business communities including contractor-led workshops, roundtables, so-sponsorship agreements, interagency agreements, tribal consultations, development and distribution of promotional materials, and attendance and participation in national and regional economic development conferences. ONAA has consistently taken steps to bring business training and information sessions to local American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian communities through contractor-led empowerment and enterprise workshops. Such national contractor-led and ONAA’s Assistant Administrator roundtables, American Supplier Initiative, co-sponsoring agreements, interagency agreements, and tribal consultations include such as business empowerment workshops, (8a) Business Development Program assistance, emerging business assistance, Moneysmart workshops, incubator workshops, business matchmaking sessions and updates that pertain to these groups. This funding opportunity seeks proposal of efforts that are unique and innovative in the substance of the assistance to be provided beneficiaries, and/or the methodology by which assistance is to be provided focusing on the geographic regions of the Southwest and Great Plains.
