Government Contracting Committee

A Letter from Eileen Curtis, President & CEO, Dulles Regional Chamber of Commerce

The Dulles Regional Chamber of Commerce (DRCC) serves one of the nation’s foremost high-tech corridors and acts as a resource for more than 1,000 business members in Western Fairfax and Eastern Loudoun County. Many of our programs deal with workforce issues.

Government contractors provide critical jobs for many of our fellow citizens. However, the seasoned but smaller among them tend to be underserved. To address the needs of growing government contractors, the DRCC is launching a focused effort to better support this important group through networking, workforce development, outreach and advocacy.

In 2011, the DRCC will be hosting a series of programs addressing the challenges facing this segment. If you would like to learn more about the DRCC and these programs, then GovCONnections is the event for you! I look forward to seeing you!

Regards,

Eileen
