The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, which became law on March 27, provides help for businesses and individuals dealing with effects of the global pandemic. Among the assistance offered in the $2 trillion program are the Paycheck Protection Program, which provides $349 billion in forgivable loans to keep staff paid, and Economic Injury Disaster Loans, which range up to $2 million and include a $10,000 advance.
