βI am honored to be reappointed to the SBAβs Council on the Underserved Communities to ensure that Americaβs 1.4 million job creating, industry innovating entrepreneurs are well-represented during this critical time for small business investment. Working in close collaboration with our diverse business partners is at the core of who we are at NGLCC, as LGBT Americans inherently include women, people of color, those with disabilities, and more. The NGLCC and SBA have a long history of working together to grow our communityβs businesses and expand access to resources from coast to coast.Β This appointment will allow us to build even stronger support for our work with SBA to finally add LGBT- owned small businesses (LGBTBEs) to federal procurement, subcontracting, and economic development initiatives,β
