SBA's Small and Disadvantaged Business Program
Apply for small disadvantaged business (SDB) certification through the SBA at this site. This certification makes business owners eligible for certain government procurement preference programs. Designated groups such as African Americans, Native Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans are presumed to be socially and economically disadvantaged. Others, however, not in these designated groups must prove their disadvantage based on other factors such as gender or physical handicap.
