Community and Government Relations
Who We Are: The Community & Government Relations Committee is comprised of Chamber member representatives from local and state government, non-profit organizations, corporations, mid-size companies, small businesses, and entrepreneurs. Committee members work collaboratively to serve as a leading voice for business and economic issues that impact the membership-at-large and the business community in the Southern Chester County region and County.
By virtue of its leadership, standing committees and program agenda, the Chamber actively supports initiatives aimed at promoting a healthy business climate, growth of our membership, and a strong, sustainable, diverse, and unbiased economy.
What We Do: Through the efforts of our Committee members, including representatives from the Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry, The Chamber of Commerce of Greater Philadelphia, Transportation Management Association of Chester County, Chester County Economic Development Council, Chester County Planning Commission, Chester Water Authority, local municipal managers and others, issues affecting the region and the County are brought to the table for discussion and action.
Supplemental Support: Relevant topic discussions and supplemental information are summarized and published in the Chamber's monthly e-publication, The Reporter. The publication supports the Committee's efforts to communicate relevant and timely topics and presenting related issues to the elected officials to ensure Members’ voices are heard. Please visit The Reporter to learn more and read past issues.
When We Meet: First Friday of the month from 8:00 - 9:30 am at the SCCCC office in West Grove.
