Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contracting Program is sponsored by U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) / Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The federal government aims to award at least 5% of federal contracting dollars to women-owned small businesses annually.
Through this SBA program, the Office of Women's Business Ownership provides support to women entrepreneurs by offering business training, counseling, federal contracts, and access to credit and capital. HHS also sets aside certain federal contracts for eligible Women-Owned Small Businesses (WOSB).
This is not a direct grant for a specific project, but rather a program to help women-owned businesses compete for government contracts, which could include healthcare services.
