But community/economic organizations should definitely be actively pursuing this. Here&#039;s a guideline that we put together at WeLocals which might help https://www.wethelocals.com/what-next
Thanks for everything Becky - small biz survival is a great source of inspiration and great advice.
Stay safe everyone.]]></description>

Doing a lot of on-line and telephone planning of what to do when businesses are allowed to  reopen.  On-line have sent state resource links to businesses and individuals. We&#039;re a group of volunteers that are self tasked with encouraging visitors to our area. If the businesses don&#039;t survive we will no longer have a reason to exist.  I am going to forward your suggestions above to the local chamber of commerce and suggest they make it available to members.]]></description>
