Women's Small Business Month celebrates the incredible impact of women-owned businesses on our economy. It shines a light on the accomplishments and challenges faced by women entrepreneurs while encouraging support and investment in their growth. Organizations like SCORE play an essential role by providing resources, mentorship, and guidance to help women-owned businesses succeed. Check out the Women's Entrepreneurs Hub for resources and webinars created especially for women in business.

SCORE has the support you need to thrive, just like Teresa Williams, owner of Therayology. “SCORE was instrumental in my journey. With my mentor's guidance, I navigated the complexities of growing my business, from developing a strategic marketing plan to managing finances. The mentorship provided not only expertise but also the confidence to overcome challenges and achieve my vision.”
