SBA disaster assistance offices open in Bridgeport, Stratford

Stratford, Conn. (WTNH) - The Small Business Administration is setting up disaster assistance offices in Fairfield County for people and business still recovering from this past summer's tornado.

The twister damaged buildings and tore down trees back on June 24th. Stratford and Bridgeport were two of the areas hardest hit.

The SBA's Disaster Loan Outreach Centers will help people, businesses and non-profit groups get information on low-interest loans.
