#ReadyToOpen / #OpenTogether

The #ReadyToOpen / #OpenTogether initiative was created to help businesses navigate the re-open rules set forth by the state in the "COVID - SAFE PRACTICES" Handbook for employers:
 
This handbook helps guide employers and employees through the re-opening phases safely and using best practices to limit the spread of COVID-19. 
 

#HispanoHelps





The Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to connecting local small businesses with resources to cope with the COVID-19 health crisis. Many businesses, organizations, and government agencies at all levels have stepped up to offer assistance to other businesses and the community. We have compiled a list of these resources and opportunities for small businesses to take advantage of during these unprecedented times. We will regularly update this list as more information becomes available.​
