Our October Friday Forum featured a great presentation on starting your own micro business.

Enormous thanks to the entrepreneurs who shared their stories with us: Jamie Cullen and Jeanne McLaughlin from Na-Cho Ordinary Biz; Matt Koupal from Shred-i-gator; Karen and Kelly Neville from Special Sparkle; and Drew McNamara from Creative Souls.

Thanks also to Executive Director Scott Nixon and Board Member Consuelo Puenta from Life’s Plan, Inc. who talked about the micro-industry grants that they offer to self-advocates looking to jump-start their business.
