The Chambers of Commerce in Long Beach, Lomita, San Pedro and Wilmington are conducting brief, confidential and free business surveys in their service areas to rapidly identify and assist
companies who are most at risk for downsizing in the future because of the current economic situation.
When you complete this quick survey, the local Chamber will be able to identify and assess your critical needs and, if necessary, assemble a response team to connect you to economic development
resources that will assist you retaining and strengthening your operations.
The Pacific Gateway Workforce Investment Board initiated the Business Assistance Program and the City of Los Angeles Workforce Investment Board has generously
partnered to jointly fund this strategy. The two Boards are committed to retaining and increasing employment opportunities for job seekers
