Sophia Sylvester owner of Brooklyn Flavors a graduate of our 2010 EAP says “I really enjoyed the EAP class. The information I received was priceless. For years I struggled with my business plan and because of the class and the support from the instructor and guest speakers, I was able to finish it completely! I’m so glad I met Ms. Benjamin. She has been a great support as well. Keep up the good work!!”
