Small Businesses

Small business study

With support from the Institute for Tourism and Recreation Research, a survey of small business owners was deployed across Carbon, Park, Stillwater, and Yellowstone (MT) Counties. This project primarily explored how small business owners experienced the disaster recovery process and what concerns they have about future resiliency. 

What did we learn? 

The top-line survey report offers an overview of responses received.

Initial findings from this study were presented at the Public Management Research Conference in Utrecht, the Netherlands in June, 2023.
