The

(ARPA) reauthorized and amended the
Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 (SSBCI
statute) to provide $10 billion to fund
SSBCI as a response to the economic
effects of the COVID–19 pandemic,1
including up to $500 million for TA to
qualifying businesses. As further
detailed in the SSBCI statute (12 U.S.C.
5708(e)), Treasury may generally deploy
the $500 million for TA in three ways:
(1) by providing funds to eligible
jurisdictions to carry out qualifying TA
plans, (2) by transferring amounts to the
Minority Business Development Agency
(MBDA) so that the MBDA may use
such amounts in a matter it determines
appropriate to provide TA to qualifying
businesses, or (3) by contracting with
legal, accounting, and financial advisory
firms to provide TA to qualifying
businesses. Treasury previously
allocated $200 of the $500 million in TA
funding to an SSBCI TA Grant Program
