As small business owners/representatives, the NCAP strongly supports the concept of "one-stop-shopping" for small businesses and appreciates and recognizes those programs that have expanded their scope, and encourages the conversion of the other SBEAPs to multimedia services.  In support of the currently proposed "SBEAP Multimedia Initiative," the NCAP has outlined a potential outreach strategy that would involve state CAPs and the NCAP to garner support for conversion to multimedia services and to seek additional funding, beyond emission fees, for the state SBEAPs.  Any efforts in this regard will be fully coordinated with the SBO/SBEAP National Steering Committee.
