Meet the PA Office of Small Business Advocate – July 31 in State College! 

Want to share your story and get your voice heard on utility issues? 

The Pennsylvania Office of Small Business Advocate (OSBA) will be in the State College area on Thursday, July 31 to meet directly with local business owners—right where you are! 

This is a great opportunity for you to: 

  • Share your business story and challenges 
  • Talk about your utility needs, concerns, or questions (electric, water, gas, etc.) 
  • Learn about how OSBA advocates on behalf of small businesses across Pennsylvania 
  • Participate in a brief survey to help shape statewide policy and support 

The OSBA team will be walking through business corridors in the State College area (Bellefonte, Lemont, and Boalsburg), stopping into businesses for quick, 10-minute conversations. They want to hear directly from you—no speeches, no presentations, just authentic conversations with the people who run the businesses that drive our local economy.
