As the government shutdown enters its fourth week, local Atlanta businesses that work with federal agencies are navigating staffing and economic uncertainty.

Tracey Grace is the founder of IBEX IT Business Experts, which trains workers on new IT technologies for federal agencies. She said small Atlanta businesses like hers do a lot of work with the CDC.

“I’d be lying if I said I was not concerned about the impact to government contracts,” said Grace.
