by minorities, low-income persons, women, veterans and/or persons with disabilities. DEED provides funds to a
network of nonprofit lenders which use these funds for loans to start-up and expanding businesses throughout the
state. Additional program goals are to provide jobs for minority and/or low-income persons, create and strengthen minority
