San Luis Valley Small Business Community Dialogue

As part of Centennial State Prosperity and Small Business Majority’s pilot small business community dialogue series, CSP and SBM will partner with First Southwest Community Fund and other rural-based small business organizations to conduct an intentional community listening session in Alamosa, Colorado with a diverse range of small business owners and entrepreneurs based in the San Luis Valley. The session will be led by a community-based small business leader engaging participants in conversation around shared community values, experiences, challenges, and opportunities for change. CSP and Small Business Majority will publish and release a report ahead of the upcoming legislative session and continue our work with state-level advocacy organizations to address challenges and help form a more equitable feedback loop between Colorado’s small business communities and decision makers to ensure solutions are grounded in local needs.
