Covid-19 Businesses Resources & Recovery

The Mount Vernon Chamber of Commerce is committed to providing our members and the community at large with the best information and resources at hand regarding the COVID-19 outbreak and getting back to work in a safe manner. Our office is closed to the public until further notice, but we will be continuing to support businesses as we work remotely, via phone and email. Check our website regularly for updates as well as our Facebook page.

For our members, if you have questions, concerns or information to share, please reach out. While “business as usual” isn’t possible right now, we are adapting and continuing to serve you.
