**Important recovery resource for Sedona businesses impacted by the Pocket Fire
The U.S. Small Business Administration has approved Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL) for eligible small businesses and private nonprofits affected by the Pocket Fire. Coconino and Yavapai counties are both included in the disaster declaration.
These low-interest loans are designed to help with working capital needs resulting from the fire’s economic impacts.
For many Sedona businesses that experienced disruption and lost business during the Pocket Fire, this represents another important tool as our community continues to recover and move forward.
**Applications are open now, and the deadline to apply is May 11, 2027.**
We encourage impacted businesses to review the eligibility requirements and determine whether this resource can support their recovery.
