The Economic Alliance to Recovery (EAR)

In an effort to inform the Scotland County area about issues concerning plans for recovery from the COVID19 pandemic the Laurinburg/Scotland County Area Chamber of commerce has established a team of community partners. The Economic Alliance to Recovery (EAR) is working together to produce a series of informative videos and other resources to help answer concerns about local recovery. These resources will be focused on issues concerning education, economic impact, employee safety, community health and more.

Please be on the look out for more videos focusing on a roadmap to recovery for Scotland County.
