Coronavirus (COVID-19) Resources
The Clayton Chamber of Commerce strives to be a advocate for our investors and a resource for our community. The coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak is creating an unprecedented impact on local businesses, so CCOC created this page in order to better serve our community. We have seen so many businesses adjust their business practices over the last few days. The strength, courage and resiliency our community has shown so far is inspiring. That being said, we have a long road ahead of us. Use this categorized list to learn more about what local businesses are doing to adjust their standard business practices during this pandemic and what resources are available to you. If you have an update for this page, please email lydia@claytonchamber.com.
