These programs are offered along a continuum designed to support clients as they progress through the lifecycle of their business. Will cover these each in more detail throughout orientation.
 WEV encourages clients to access the programs and services that best fit their needs. Except for SET to Launch, a client need not attend a specific service in order to access any others – all are open to anyone. WEV subsidizes programs more heavily at the start-up level and expects clients to pay the full cost of programming as they progress in business.
