Over the last year, the Chamber's Housing Task Force has been focused on growing our supply of housing by developing tools and funding mechanisms to address workforce housing shortfalls, and better understanding and advocating for the policy environment required to make progress on this issue. We have received significant support with research and synthesizing data from three Cornell MBA Johnson Fellows - Ashley Hamilton, Shivani Mulji, and Sophie Emery. Their contributions were invaluable, and we were grateful for the opportunity to stop by and see their final project report last week. We are sending our best wishes to all three students as they move forward!
Thank you to Senator Lea Webb for identifying $150,000 in funding to support the workforce development efforts of the Tompkins Chamber, Cortland Chamber, and Greater Binghamton Chamber. We are grateful for the Senator's commitment to our communities, businesses, and region. Our chambers represent thousands of businesses, with the majority being small businesses, so this announcement is especially meaningful as we close out #smallbusinessweek. #workforcedevelopment #chamberofcommerce #economicdevelopment #ithacany #tompkinscountyny
