Community Adjustment and Partnership Program
Designed to help U.S. companies who have been negatively affected by NAFTA in certain areas of the country. CAIP or Community Adjustment and Investment Programs can be used alongside with 7(a) and 504 loan programs.
The funds received go towards the reduction of borrower costs. To be eligible for a 7(a) loan, one job must be created for every $70,000 SBA guarantee. A 504 loan requires one job creation for every $50,000 SBA guarantee.
There are presently, over 230 counties in 29 states which qualify for CAIP.
This program isn't typical grants for small businesses. The money doesn't go directly to the small business in the form of a direct grant, but instead in the form of loans. There are lower interest rates, guarantees and/or collateral for such small business loans offered federally.
