Business Library

Welcome to our Business Library!

​

These resources are intended to help you navigate how to start a new business and make informed decisions. You'll find information and insight on a range of business topics – like licensing requirements for barbershops and food trucks, examples of businesses with low barriers to entry, and a business plan template to help you evaluate the viability of your idea and get your thoughts on paper.

​

First Step Alliance has partnered with Harvard Law School, Association for Enterprise Opportunity, and other prominent organizations to make these resources available to returning citizens. Feel free to download any information you may find useful!
