About SCORE
The national organization of SCORE assisted more than 300,000 people last year alone — and some 5 million small business owners over the years. That is an incredible legacy of people across our nation helped by SCORE.

It is evidence of our dedication to the small business community and our commitment to helping you succeed and grow.

We are found in nearly 400 locations across the country.
