West Michigan COVID-19 Business Coalition

The COVID-19 public health crisis has created significant operational challenges for many businesses across West Michigan. They are struggling to understand and comply with statewide executive orders while taking care of employees, keeping patrons safe, and meeting financial obligations. Some fear that the crisis could shut them down permanently.

That’s why we’ve joined with leaders from several business, community and governmental organizations to launch COVIDWM.org. It’s a website where you and your employees can get accurate, timely and relevant information and connect to vital resources to help you weather the COVID-19 crisis.

You’ll find information on relevant legislation, business continuity, employee resources and best practices, as well as health updates and links to organizations that can help.

We back West Michigan business. It’s the lifeblood of our local economy and, in part, what makes West Michigan such a great place to live. We know that a strong, vibrant business community will be key to our recovery when our region begins to emerge from this global crisis. We want you to be part of that recovery.

We hope you’ll check out COVIDWM.org and let us know what you think. There’s a place on the site where you can submit questions and comments.

Thank you for all you do to support our community. Stay well.
