Our Initiatives

Strong Advocates

We work at the local, county, state and federal level to be a political player, a community leader and to strengthen our businesses. You can also become an advocate! In order to truly serve the people they were elected to represent, elected officials need to hear from their constituents about important issues affecting their lives.
