Many Los Angeles area small businesses were negatively impacted by 2025 wildfires -- through property damage, financial loss, or disrupted operations. 
Small Business Resources
The City of Los Angeles Emergency Management Department (EMD) is providing a Small Business Resources Guide that gathers many useful resources to help businesses navigate recovery and access support across a range of needs. Each entry provides a summary of the resource or program, the types of services offered, and useful links to find out more. 
This guide is intended to serve as a starting point for small business owners looking for support as they recover from the impacts of the wildfires. Availability of services may vary, and readers are encouraged to contact individual programs directly for the most up-to-date information.
The downloadable guide includes a summary of resources included, organized across key user needs. Some resources are relevant across multiple user needs; read the full guide for a complete understanding of all available and relevant resources.
