To business prospects and newcomers, the Chamber represents the community's self image. Chambers of Commerce are increasingly involved in non-commercial areas, such as education, human relations, environmental, cultural and governmental concerns. These challenges have caused Chambers of Commerce to become a viable force in seeking solutions in today's social problems. Chambers of Commerce influence national, state and local legislation affecting business.
