Chamber Committees

Sullivan County Young Professionals - formerly Young Emerging Leaders - YEL! for Change...what are we about?

If you are unaware, YEL! stands for Young Emerging Leaders and we are a task force of the Sullivan County Chamber of Commerce. Our mission is, “to bridge the gap between aspiring individuals and local businesses to advance the growth of Sullivan County.” You may be wondering, what exactly does that mean? It’s quite simple: young professionals + local businesses + networking = success.

Our vision, though simple, is vital to the longevity of Sullivan County: connect the aspiring youth of the county with local business professionals. By fostering these relationships and exposing the great jobs available in our backyard, we will inspire those who grow up here to stay here.

YEL! is the missing link between talented high school and college graduates of Sullivan County and local businesses. We will encourage all to discover the secrets of doing business in Sullivan County. We will learn from each other powerful sales, marketing and networking skills. But above all, we will close generational gaps in business.
