Ensuring opportunities for ALL in Virginia.

After an historic election that will certainly incite changes statewide, we're forming the Central Virginia Economic Initiative, uniting businesses, ministries and concerned citizens to affect positive change in our communities regarding economics and the policies and programs that affect them. Learn more about your newly elected officials, and share your needs and priorities as a business owner, ministry leader or concerned citizen in Virginia. Connect with like-minded people who KNOW what's going on in the state and federal government and want to empower YOU to make a change for yourself, your family, your business or ministry and your community.

Got questions? 

We’ve got answers!

Will I have an opportunity to share what's really important to me?

Absolutely! We want to hear from you. We will also share details about current state and federal public policies on your topics and how you can advocate to change these policies, replace them or make them even more beneficial to people like YOU.

Is this a networking event?

No, our focus is information and activation. We're going to share information with you, answer your questions and engage you in the process of making a difference. However, we do suggest that you bring your business cards, as there will be like-minded people present with whom you may want to connect over refreshments at the end.

Is this Summit slanted toward one political party over another?

No, there will be people present from various political and religious backgrounds. The information we're going to share is factual and bi-partisan. We want to hold ALL of our state and federal leaders accountable for meeting the needs of individual citizens and people groups within the areas they serve. We also want ALL people to access resources that are, or should be, available to them.
