The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity is urging struggling businesses to apply for Business Interruption Grants. This is the second round of “BIG” Grants offered by the state, with a focus on helping minority-owned, downstate and agriculture businesses this time. 175 million dollars is still available, with grant amounts varying. The money can be used to re-hire employees, pay rent, purchase PPE and more. It takes two to three weeks for grant applications to be processed. More information is available online by clicking HERE
