CIC strengthens our community and contributes to economic development by fueling the success of underresourced entrepreneurs through education, mentoring, financing, and networking. We abide by the principle that strong local economies come from within: CIC is a grassroots initiative created by the community for the community. Through a 4-month comprehensive business training program, microfinancing, and ongoing advisory support, CIC strengthens the local ecosystem for entrepreneurship.
