On March 27, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic, Congress passed the Coronavirus, Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. This is historic and sweeping legislation created to help keep workers paid and employed, allow businesses to remain operational, make necessary health care system enhancements and help stabilize the economy.
During this stressful and uncertain time, we are here to help you understand the immediate financial relief and other financial resources available to all Americans through the CARES Act.
