A Women’s Business Center (WBC) is a counseling and training program for women seeking to start or grow a business. Each WBC is unique; they connect their clients with capital (funding) and other resources specific to their local community. WBCs offer a variety of services tailored to the needs of the communities they serve, including training in finance, management and marketing.
