Bend, OR – On Wednesday, March 25, a new website was launched in Central Oregon called CentralOregonSOS.com. This new website was created as a one-stop resource hub for employers, employees, and the community in this time of unprecedented uncertainty.

“This website was created to help businesses and workers to easily find resources they need now. We worked with many partners to aggregate these efforts in one, easy to navigate site that will help businesses and employees find the help they need.” says Katy Brooks, CEO of the Bend Chamber of Commerce.

“With the assistance of OSU-Cascades’ students and our partners around the region we were able to develop this resource hub to connect all of the great efforts to assist business and our community. It really is a testament to how Central Oregonians work together in a time of need,” said Adam Krynicki, Executive Director of the OSU-Cascades Innovation Co-Lab.

As S.O.S. is the universal sign for need of assistance, CentralOregonSOS.com is about hearing that signal for help and responding with a place where businesses and their employees can go for information, to find help and connect with those who have answers.

“It is critical that businesses in La Pine have easy access to regional, state and federal aid in one place,” said Ann Gawith, Director of the La Pine Chamber of Commerce.

Funding for the site, in part, was made possible by the Prineville Chamber of Commerce through a grant from Facebook.

Filled with useful and comprehensive resources for the region, including where employers and employees can find financial assistance, the site content was created through a consortium of collaborators from around the Central Oregon.
