From the President's Desk
Welcome to the Henry County Chamber. It wasn’t too long ago that someone said those exact words to me.
As a catalyst for business growth, we provide numerous programs and resources to businesses and business leaders that support the businesses and create the jobs that strengthen the region.
The Chamber is a convener of business leaders and community influencers. We leverage the scale and diversity of our entire region. We foster a culture of collaboration to address challenges, create solutions, and enhance our community.
It requires a champion to defend business values and make bold steps forward on important business matters. Our advocacy efforts continue at all levels of government as we promote policies supporting job creation, business retention, and economic growth.
#MyHenryChamber: More than a membership; it’s a partnership.
Joseph B. Henning, IOM, CAE
President & CEO

Henry County Schools Educator Launch
Wednesday, July 22
Many changes are in store for the 2020-2021 school year as Henry County Schools prepares for students and teachers to return to schools during the COVID-19 pandemic. The new normal begins with a “reimagined” Educator Launch, formerly known as Teacher Induction Program or “TIP” in mid-July. This year, Educator Launch will be onboarding 400 new teachers joining Henry County Schools in the upcoming school term. The “Reimagined” Educator Launch transforms a mid-July, week-long orientation into remote settings with everyone logging in from different locations for their various sessions.
Sponsors Needed!
This year, the Educator Launch luncheon will be transformed in compliance to COVID-19 social distancing guidelines which will involve teachers participating in the July 22 activities from remote locations. Participating Chamber sponsors will welcome the new teachers with a special lunch and gift bags as always with delivery adjustments to accommodate the various locations.
Chamber members are asked to sponsor the welcoming activities for this year’s Educator Launch by donating funds and/or providing 400 items for teacher gift bags. All items for the gift bags must be received by 4:00 PM on July 16, 2020.
