The Hardin County Commissioners in partnership with the Hardin County Chamber & Business Alliance have developed a Small Business Relief Program to provide Hardin County small businesses with some monetary relief of the business interruption costs caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic in the form of grants of CARES Act funding.

The application process started  Oct. 21. The grants are first-come first-serve and it is the recommendation of the Hardin County Chamber & Business Alliance to promptly apply for grant dollars. 

 Grants will begin to be awarded on Nov. 24, and end on Dec. 18.
